I would recommend having these removed. Mainly because Jango won't leave them alone, they have grown and we cannot say if they are cancerous or not unless we have a biopsy. Your vet can remove this and then send it out to the lab to have the pathologist review it. Thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.
