It's hard to advise you what to do without knowing what is available in your area. Here she'd have a needle biopsy done to see what the mass could be made up of. Regarding her age, a simple blood test would give the vet valuable information regarding the health of her kidneys which filter the anesthesia. However, what anesthesia is used in your area is questionable. Is she spayed? I'd worry about any mass in the breast area especially if she's not spayed. Could be a simple fatty tumor which is harmless but common in older dogs. See if the vet can do a needle biopsy for starters. -Sharon |
