My dog has a growth on her right leg

Tuesday, June 22nd, 2010

Hi,

I have a 12 year old pug and I’d like your opinion about a growth  the inside of his right front leg.

We took him to our vet who told us it was a fatty tissue that hangs down about two inches.

My dog has had it for about a year and it doesn’t seem to bother him.  Our vet said it was benign and we could just let it alone as it is not a health problem.

Is he correct?
