My dog has a small, growing white bump on his nose. What should I do?

Question

Small white bump on my dogs nose has gotten larger in the last two weeks. It just appeared about 3 weeks ago. It does not seem to hurt him, but I am not sure what it is. He is a Husky/great Pyranees mix, 1.5 years old. Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed | Male | neutered | 1 year and 7 months old | 100 lbs

Since the growth is on the nose, it would be best to bring Quinn into your vet for care. Tumors, fungal infections, abrasions, burns, etc can all cause signs like you are seeing, and since some are more serious issues, should be seen and treated, especially if the area is growing rapidly in size. Your vet can take a scraping or biopsy from the area to check under a microscope and see what is going on.
