My dog has a white skin tag or scab on her stomach. Should I see a vet?

Question

Hi, my dog had a white scab on the side of her stomach. It looks like a skin tag but it’s scary. She’s had it over a month now and it’s not going away. She doesn’t have this anywhere else. Should I take her to the vet and what could it be?

This growth needs to be checked and analysed as there are many conditions and types of tumors that could look like that. take her to the vet, they will perform a fine needle aspiration on the growth and send it to the lab for analysis. when the result comes, the vet will advise what needs to be done according to the diagnosis.
