Hello, I have a female beagle which is 6 months old. Recently she has a small wart on her head appeared and it bleeds sometimes but she's not complaining and doesn't feel anything there. She's still active and playing around as if nothing happened. Kindly suggest how to remove it?

Hello. In a dog this young, I would leave it alone & it will probably fall off by itself. Just keep it clean by dabbing a little hydrogen peroxide on it & it will probably disappear in a few weeks. If not, you should leave any removal to your veterinarian. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.
