Lipomas (Benign Fatty Lumps)
Lipomas are benign, slow-growing fatty tumors commonly found under a dog's skin, particularly in older or overweight dogs. While typically harmless, they can grow large and occasionally interfere with movement or comfort. Veterinary evaluation is recommended to distinguish them from other growths and determine if intervention is necessary.
