what do u think i should do?whenu touch it its doent hurt them its a asmalll bump but whenu tooch it it feels ike there isair in there and it doesnt hurt them?its 3 of the 5 puppiesits a very small bubble?

its probably a hernia and you have to get it removed by a vet

try not to touch it and i would recommend u goto the vet

there is no way to say without a vet check. that's what you need to do is take them to the vet. This could also be hereditary problem if 3 pups have the same thing.Please don't take any chances

Leo, The likely hood of these being umbilical hernias is very high. So bring them into your vets to see exactly what they are. I cant see what they look like but your vet can. OK

I thought it was one?? It's likely umbilical hernia.. Is it on the belly??? Take them to the vet, he'll take a look and likely fix them up for you.. Are you a breeder?? Shouldn't you know this??

It sounds like a small bubble of fat called a lipoma that is just under the skin. My dog gets them. They wont hurt the dog, they are just bumpy! They may get bigger or just go away on their own, you don't need to do anything with them. BUT, that said, you should always get lumps checked out by a vet. After my vet told me what they were after examining our dog I now know what they are when more pop up.Here's an article for you:Lipomas: Benign Fatty GrowthsVeterinary & Aquatic Services Department, Drs. Foster & Smith, Inc. Lipomas are one of the most common benign tumors found in dogs. Most older or overweight dogs have at least one lipoma. Almost every dog owner has, at one time or another, found or felt one of these common fatty tumors on their dog. Veterinarians generally disregard these and do not recommend removal unless they are causing a problem. With only a few exceptions, this is generally the advice that we give as well. What are the characteristics of lipomas, and how are they diagnosed?We regularly advise dog owners to bring their dog in for an examination if they find a growth that suddenly appeared. We usually take a history of the dog and do a careful palpation of the growth. If we suspect a lipoma, we document the size and location and then recommend that we keep an eye on it and only become concerned if it grows rapidly or starts to become too large and create a problem with mobility. We usually offer to perform a fine needle aspirate or biopsy to confirm that it is a lipoma.When we talk about lipomas, we try to avoid the word 'tumor' in the conversation. When most people hear the word 'tumor,' a big red flag goes up in their mind and gloom and doom scenarios take over. We like to call these fatty tumors, "growths" and often describe them as fat deposits in an abnormal location. They almost always are located in the subcutaneous tissue. They are firm yet moveable and they are painless and not associated with infection or hair loss.TreatmentWhile we and every other veterinarian have probably removed lipomas for cosmetic reasons, we usually discourage it because the slight risks associated with anesthesia and surgical complications are not worth the health benefit of removing a common growth that will not cause any problem. We may suggest that if the animal is going to be anesthetized for another reason, e.g., dental cleaning and polishing, the tumor(s) could be removed then. The other reason they are usually not removed is that they are so common, a veterinarian could fill his or her entire day with the diagnosis and surgical removal of these tumors and never get anything else done. Monitoring their size and removing them if they are impeding mobility or are causing friction rubs between the flank and leg are all that is usually necessary.With this said, we want to caution owners against routinely dismissing growths or lumps in the skin or subcutaneous tissue. There are some very serious tumors that appear in the skin and subcutaneous tissue and it takes a trained veterinarian to distinguish between them. We always encourage pet owners to bring their dog in for an examination whenever they identify a new growth or lump. A fine needle aspirate or biopsy can easily be performed to verify the existence of a lipoma.While simple lipomas are the most common, occasionally a more infiltrative lipoma will develop. These lipomas invade the surrounding tissue to a greater degree and will regrow about half of the time after they are removed. This is just another reason that veterinarians are often reluctant to remove these tumors. These infiltrative lipomas are not more aggressive or dangerous, they are just harder to successfully remove.SummaryIf you find a lump on or under your dog's skin, have him examined by a veterinarian. Your veterinarian can determine if it is a lipoma and can verify it with a fine needle aspirate or a biopsy. Surgical removal is the treatment, but usually is not necessary because these growths are benign and rarely become overly large.References and Further ReadingBonagura, J; Kirk, R.
