It is best to go to the vet.
Even if it is some kind of cancer the vet may well be able to do something seeing as you are doing what many less responsible owners don't and taking your dog to the vet as soon as you notice.

Well you didn't say she had a problem! Don't put the vet visit off. Dogs of her age can get mammary tumors. Your vet is the only one who can tell you if this is what they are and what if anything can be done for her.
Keep the vet visit and talk with your vet.

I had a lab who was 13 and she got lumps and bumps! the vet said it was just fatty deposits which come with age. I think its best to get them checked though, hope your dog is ok!xx
Ignore that bloody looser pretending to be a vet!! too thick to be a vet!!!

Dogs can get many types of tumors, some of which are cancerous and some are not. Most likely your vet will want to do a biopsy to determine which kind they are. Labs often get a type called a lipoma, or fatty tumor which areer harmless.

might be cysts which are usually harmless, a good sign is that your dog is eating and acting normally, best to get her checked out, hope all goes ok at vets.

I can see that you would be worried. But it could still be minor. It could be fibroid cist. Dont get upset till you talk to vet.
