An interesting fact about lipomas, fatty benign tumours, is that domestic pets can suffer as well as humans, especially dogs. Lipoma in dogs is by no means rare, typically affecting older dogs who are 8 years old or older. In fact, most overweight, older dogs will be affected at some stage. Naturally, dog owners become somewhat upset and anxious when they discover a growth. However, the majority of vets will not be too concerned, and assuming that the tumour does not cause a problem, will not be in favour of removal surgery.
A canine lipoma is soft, moveable and in most instances painless. In dogs, the lump will most frequently appear under the skin in the chest, abdomen or undercarriage. Although the lump may appear grotesque, it does not pose a threat to the well being of the dog.
If you do discover that your dog has a lump, a trip to the vet is advisable, particularly if the growth suddenly appears. Typically, your vet will look at the dog’s full history and examine the lump thoroughly. A biopsy may also be taken so that a definite diagnosis can be made to ascertain whether the lump is a lipoma or in fact something else.
If established as a lipoma, the size and location will be documented, so that any changes can be confirmed during further visits. If the dog lipoma expands quickly, or it restricts movement, then a case may be made for removal.
Even though you may be stressed and anxious for your dog, the vet may still discourage the thought of surgery, due to the risks involved, such as anaesthetic or other complications. Dog owners should also bear in mind that lipoma removal is not a guarantee against re-growth, but should the lump be so large that it restricts movement or causes pain, then removal may be the most convenient method of treating lipomas in dogs
The bottom line for dog owners is
that if you do discover a lump on your dog, get it checked out by your vet as
soon as possible.
