Pippin is my 4 year old MF sable male. We discovered a small hard lump on Pippin's back 2 days ago. He was just vaccinated on Aug. 17th and the vet said it could be nothing if it was from the shot but I said I wanted to bring him in anyway. Ever since Merry getting diagnosed with Lymphoma I've been worried and checking them more often (trying not to be a stoolgazer...YUCK!) So today Pippin had a check up and the vet thinks it's formed there where he got the shot and told me to monitor it and it should go away in a couple weeks. Anyone else have this happen after shots? Thanks for anyone's advice.

For those of you who have seen my posts about Merry's Lymphoma - she is doing great! She has undergone 6 weeks of chemotherapy and now has moved to a monthly schedule. The mass that had begun to form after her surgery is now almost completely gone. I will post in more detail later about the protocol for those that may be interested. I am keeping a record of her treatment and will do a write up on the results of her treatment and how many years it prolonged her life.
