It's been 3 days that my dog grows this bumps on her face in the morning. After a while, they disappear but it doesn't seem to affect her at all or even care about them.
We noticed one day one that it appeared on her eyebrow and after a bit, it disappeared and appeared on her nose and then it disappeared from her nose and went to her ear and then it was gone until the next morning, it appeared again.
We thought she was allergic to the food so we changed it, then we thought something in her kennel and we took it out and washed her bed. Has anyone experienced something similar or have an idea what this might be?

Definitely check with a vet please, but there is a type of soft lump called a lipoma that doesn't attach to any tissue and thus can move around a bit and come and go rather quickly. These are very common, and unless they grow to the point that they interfere with movement, for example, are completely harmless. I hope this is what the vet diagnosis for your doggo!
I'm afraid this is something you should discuss with your vet as it could be an allergy or something more serious so it's best to have a qualified vet answer this for you.
Since these seem to come and go you may need to draw a circle around each bump 2 or 3 days before the appointment. Use a colored marker so the vet can see where the bumps are appearing even if the bump is no longer there.
Be sure to tell the vet how long this has been going on as well as when it happens.
The vet will also want to know what types of food you are feeding her and if there has been any changes in her behavior or even any changes in the normal routines of the family household.
Tests can be time consuming and expensive so hopefully this will be something minor and easily diagnosed for the sake of your pet's present and future health.
Please share with us what your vet determines is causing this problem with your pretty girl.
This is a question for your vet. You want to make an appointment and rule out any potentially dangerous causes for this.
My dog has this lumps some years back and basically most lumps are fatty tumors, though.
These are benign, meaning not cancerous. Fewer than half of lumps and bumps you find on a dog are malignant, or cancerous. Still, they can look the same from the outside, so it's hard to tell. Unless you're sure about the cause of a lump or bump, bring your dog in for an exam.
But luckily for me I found a company that asked me few questions about my dog and they sent me the supplement I used for my dog and my dog is fine.
hi-if these lumps disappear it does sound like an allergy-years ago when i was young my dog had an allergic reaction to an antibiotic given at the vet-he got bumps all over his face and was hyperactive for about 20 minutes when we home from the vets.however as others have said,its perhaps best to visit the vet .good luck xxx
Check with the vet for allergies. It sounds similar to what our fur boy had when he was on a flea med and was still getting bites. Not an infestation but bites. We had to change his flea protection protocol.
Can you see or feel something moving under the dog's skin? If so, it could be a worm. The best choice is going to the vet.
Please get this checked as soon as you can buy a vet, this is not normal and it could be all or nothing. It is best to know for your fur babies sake.
Could be some sort of allergy reaction.. Please make an appointment and get it checked out.
I think this is Hives, also known as urticaria.
Hives Symptoms:
Raised itchy bumps, either red or skin-colored "Blanching" (when pressed, the center of a red hive turns white).
Hives Triggers:
Some food (especially peanuts, eggs, nuts and shellfish)
Medications, such as antibiotics (especially penicillin and sulfa), aspirin and ibuprofen
Insect stings or bites
Physical stimuli, such as pressure, cold, heat, exercise or sun exposure
Latex
Blood transfusions
Bacterial infections, including urinary tract infections and strep throat
Viral infections, including the common cold, infectious mononucleosis and hepatitis
Pet dander
Pollen
Some plants
Hives Management and Treatment:
Avoid known triggers.
See an allergist, who is specially trained to look for triggers to your hives and may recommend medications to prevent the hives or reduce the severity of symptoms. Whether your allergist suggests a treatment available only by prescription or an over the counter treatment will depend on several factors, including how uncomfortable the hives are making you.
Symptoms:
Symptoms can last anywhere from minutes to months - or even years.
While they resemble bug bites, hives (also known as urticaria) are different in several ways:
Hives can appear on any area of the body; they may change shape, move around, disappear and reappear over short periods of time.
The bumps - red or skin-colored "wheals" with clear edges - usually appear suddenly and go away just as quickly.
Pressing the center of a red hive makes it turn white - a process called "blanching".
There are two types of hives - short-lived (acute) and long-term (chronic). Neither is typically life-threatening, though any swelling in the throat or any other symptom that restricts breathing requires immediate emergency care. acaai.org/
Hello! I have a malinois that has the same thing for 2 days. It's coming and going. Did you ever figured out what it was?
Thanks.
