Dog has a ruptured, bleeding lump. Is it a tumor? What should I do?

Question

It has been a week since our dog started to have a lump. I didn't dare to touch it because I was scared it might hurt. Days after, we noticed that it was ruptured. What could it be? Is there a possibility that she has tumor? This photo was taken yesterday. Today, another lump was ruptured and is bleeding. I am worried that she might end up dying. Due to enhanced community quarantine we can't take her to the vet. What should we do? Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed | Female | unspayed | 1 year and 1 month old

It is very hard to say what the lump is without examining your dog and possibly taking a sample of the lump for pathology. It is possible that the lump is a mammary gland tumour (benign or malignant) but it really does not often happen in such young dogs. All you need to do at the moment is to keep the wound clean and make sure that Aubrey does not lick it. Once your vet is open, you need to take your dog for an appointment.
