she's not a vet so I don't see how she would know could it be a cyst or worse?Will they have to do a biopsy?

How old did she get a rabies shot? That is given in the back leg.
Stop and think before you jump to conclusions. Highly unlikely a "pup" needs a biopsy unless you got it from a petstore?

My puppy had the same thing so I took him to the vet. Turns out that after they give the rabies shot a bump sometimes forms and looks like a cyst or something. Lasted for over a month. Not saying that is what is wrong with your dog. But think if that is where the rabies shot was given recently.

My colleague's dog had the same thing happen shortly after she got her rabies shot. If the lump is in the same place the rabies shot was given, there's a good chance that's all it is, and it will go away. However, it's always better to be safe than sorry and I would take her to the vet just in case.

I am not a vet. either but I do own several animals, and if it was my puppy I would take it to the vet and let them check it out. It could be nothing at all but if it is and you don't do anything about it, then wouldn't you feel bad? Just think if that was your child and she had a lump on her some where, wouldn't you take her to the doctor and have her checked out. just play it safe, and have a vet check her out.

My dog just had 5 small lumps removed. They were nothing, the vet just said sometimes they get bigger, but I learned my lesson, take your dog to the vet for regular check ups.

save an eye fixed on the bump and observe if it transformations in length any. also if the domestic dog continues to be playful and ingesting then its secure to assert you would possibly want to nicely be precise about useful. contact it gently to be certain if he wines that would offer you with a clue. yet even if it continues to be there and the same you would possibly want to favor to have him checked basically in case. maximum vets will value you less than conventional in the journey that they sense you care about the canines wellbeing better than the cost of the vet. Take care.

Call your vet. They may very well biopsy it to be sure.

Something is wrong for sure and you should and the only way to find out is to get x-Ray.
