My puppy is a 9 week old female Boxer. She has this strange yellowish scab by her belly and her vagina and when I put my hand to see what it was there was a lump at the side of it. I'm so worried I don't know what it could be! She's not yet had her second needle so you can see why I'm so worried.

Please take your pup to your vet immediately as the scab and lump can be many possibilities-including infection and cancer. If you delay diagnosis and treatment, your pup may suffer and, depending on the actual medical problem, die.
Could be an abscess. This is when the puppy gets a small puncture wound that gets infected. The infection grows under the skin and creates that lump. So if that's what it is the whole thing is infected and she needs to see the vet before her next shot is due.
