Age: 2 yr

Sex: Female spayed

Weight: 60 lbs

Location: Canada

We can't really answer questions on skin lesions, but in general we take oral masses very seriously. You should have your vet examine this mass.

Thanks, I am bringing her to the vet I was just curious how concerned I should be. I don't know if dogs get cysts in the mouth or what else a mass like that could be. All I get when I try to look it up is the incisive papilla which isn't this.
