And I have found that small dogs tend to vomit more than more larger dogs. However, I'd suggest that you contact your vet and ask their professional opinion.

We thought he was just getting old. I wouldn't mess around with it. Just take her to the vet. The test was cheap and it will either relieve your worry or put you in the direction for treatment. I hope that its just a lump. My 6YO mastiff had that same kind of lump only much bigger and it turned out to be Mast Cell cancer. We thought he was just getting old. I wouldn’t mess around with it.

You might want to seek out the opinion of another vet. I definitely wouldn't take any chances with it though. A different vet might have a new perspective on the problem. Good luck and I hope your lab feels better soon! Hey Bill – I would not want to venture a guess at what might be wrong as I have never experienced this before with my own dogs.

The vet has flushed them out and given medication but to no avail, nor can they tell me why. Can you ? and what can I do to prevent/cure him ?
