If you are able to upload a picture with another question it may be helpful. Without seeing the lump it is hard to give an answer if the lump is something to be worried about. You can upload up to 3 pictures when submitting a question. Thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.

    It is very difficult to say much without at least seeing a photo. Can you please repost your question with a photo? Without a photo the only advice I can give you is to have Jasper checked out by your vet. Lumps are usually either abscesses (infection) or tumors (cancer). Other options are cysts, parasites or wounds but again, hard to say without seeing it.
