Thank you for submitting your question regarding Treason. I recommend that she sees a veterinarian as the mass is quite large. A procedure known as a fine needle aspirate will likely be performed. The veterinarian will use a small needle to collect a sample of cells to evaluate under the microscope. This will tell what type of mass it is and how best to treat it. I hope this information helps!
