Hi everyone, I’ve just happened to notice that my one-year-old dog has a lump, just over half a centimetre wide, on the roof of his mouth (right behind his front teeth). Could anyone tell me if this is normal?

My dog has exactly the same thing and I’m worried. Can you tell me what that little lump on the roof of his mouth turned out to be?
Kind regards
Thanks a lot for your reply.
I'm going to pop into the vet's sometime this week, keeping a close eye on it in the meantime to make sure it doesn't get any bigger. Like you said, the most important thing is to get some peace of mind and not take any risks ;)
Both of mine have a tiny little bump right in the centre. Not off-centre like your dog's.
But then again, it could be absolutely nothing, a dental abscess, or maybe he’s been stung by a wasp... It really is quite small.
To put your mind at rest and play it safe, the best thing would be to pop into the vet with the photo. It won't cost anything, and if they're any good, they'll tell you what’s what without charging you for a full consultation.
That’s definitely what I’d do in your shoes. Mine once confirmed a tapeworm diagnosis just from photos of some poo, so looking at your photo is much nicer and even easier for them! ;-)
