I have had my Golden Retriever for about three years now. I got him when he was about eight weeks old and he is not neutered. I'm not sure what sort of shots he's had because I don't know where his papers are and I was too young to keep track of that kind of thing when we got him. Ever since I remember, he's had a growth on his lower back just a bit bigger than a dime. It's notably raised but doesn't seem to be getting any bigger over time. It doesn't go away either. The skin colour and hair growth around it are both completely normal, and there doesn't seem to be any pain or irritation at all. It seems like it could be removed very easily because it seems to have completely free movement. Does this sound like something that a vet should have a look at?
