My dog has a spreading growth on his face. Should I see a vet?

Question

hi, I'm Sierra. I was wondering if you could help me figure out what is wrong with my dog. He has this growing thing on his face, it's starting to spread. It started about 3 weeks ago but I don't have a vet near by. Please help me. Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Medium (23 - 60lb) | Female | unspayed | 27 lbs

Poor Roroe! That is indeed a very concerning looking growth. Based on the picture and what you are describing, Roroe is likely in a lot of pain, and the growth may be preventing him from eating and drinking. Please see the list below for veterinarians in your area and have him seen by a vet right away. They will be able to suggest testing to help determine a treatment plan and provide pain relief as needed. Do not give any over the counter or human pain medications to Roroe without consulting with a veterinarian, as some medications that are safe for humans can be deadly to dogs, even in small doses. Best of luck to you both. I'm sorry you are going through this.
