Daisy should be checked by a vet to determine the cause of the lump, especially if it is growing quickly. Some dogs can get a small lump after having vaccines but the lump doesn't typically grow large. Your vet can do a fine needle aspirate to determine the cause of the lump and then determine the best way to treat the problem.
