My 12 1/2 Year Old Miniature Schnauzer Has A Bump On Her Face I Discovered Two Days Ago. …

My 12 1/2 year old miniature schnauzer has a bump on her face I discovered two days ago. The bump was originally pink and matted over by hair. She got a full hair cut about a month ago so the bump wasn’t there before that. We’ve been putting Neosporin on it and a liquid band aid but after cutting more hair from the wound which had scabs over it with the hair, it is red and still fully exposed with a black edge. Not sure what this could be. Is it life threatening or do I need to take her to the vet?

    Good morning-
    It is so hard to tell from a picture. I think I would call and get an appointment with the vet- it could be something simple, but I would make sure. Best of luck.

    To the vet, for sure. They’ll want to put hands on it to help in diagnosis and cure.

Inky’s Story: Feline Neuter In A Rescued Feral Kitten With A Suspected Oronasalpharyngeal Polyp
Treatment Cost (USD): $385.00
Inky is a rescued feral kitten who originally came to Jarrettsville Veterinary Center because he had what was thought to be a recurrent upper respiratory infection, which turned out to be a suspected oronasalpharyngeal polyp behind his soft palate. Inky was scheduled for an oral cavity exploratory surgery in which the treating veterinarian would attempt to remove the polyp. Since Inky was going to be under general anesthesia for this procedure, it was determined that he should be neutered at the same time.

Pyometra In A 14 Year Old Yorkie. Meet Suzie
Treatment Cost (USD): $1141.00
Suzie was a few weeks out of her last heat cycle. She was not eating well, lethargic and started to have brown, thick infected looking discharge from her vulva. Her family was on a very tight budget due to her recent bought of pancreatitis that required almost two weeks of hospitalization and treatment. Her cot of care for that was almost $1600. So when the pyometra diagnosis happened the well was dry.

Feline Neuter Surgery For Persian Cat, Cyrus
Treatment Cost (USD): $300.00
Cyrus is a 2 year old Persian cat who underwent feline neuter surgery at Jarrettsville Veterinary Center. Persian cats are "brachycephalic," meaning they have flat faces. ("Bracychephaly" means "short skull.") Brachycephalic cats like Cyrus can sometimes have breathing difficulties due to their anatomy, and they are at higher risk for breathing complications during surgery. For this reason, extra precautions were taken during Cyrus's neuter to ensure that he could breathe properly. This resulted in the costs being a little higher than they would be for a straightforward neuter of a non-brachycephalic breed.
