I have a pug that will be a year in September 25 and she has this red bump that started as a little red circle. I thought it I was just maybe because she was playing too rough with the other dogs and I ignored it and then I looked today and it's very big (at least than it was before).
I'm just scared because my day off is till Sunday so should I need to find someone to take her to the vet now? Also what even is this? How scared should I be? And before I forget, it doesn't seem to hurt. It doesn't bother her when I touch it.
Also please don't think I'm a bad dog mom. I love my puggy. She's actually sleeping on my bed as I type this.

Sounds like you are a very concerned doggie mother to me.
This type of thing cannot be diagnosed by lay people as there are too many things it could be so I think you should contact your vet about an appointment but a few days may not make a real difference.
I can say, on a usual basis, this type of bump is not serious but may still need a vet to take care of it.
I'm sure you have a household of love going on so just be guided by your vet's decision.
I had one dog that seemed to get a lot of these on her. I had them all taken off because I was worried. I would really take the dog to the vet. This could be nothing at all or it could be the starting of cancer like with my dog. Taking them off of her saved her life and allowed her to live another 5 or 6 years until one day they just took over and we could not stop them.
Post back with an update! Dogs get lumps and bumps and only a vet can tell you if it is anything. You are good being a pug mum by getting it looked at! Prayers for a good outcome!
This should be a concern and not taken lightly. It could be 1 of many things or nothing . Yet you would need to seek professional advice from a Vet when you are able.
A fast growing lump is always reason for concern. Get your dog to the vet ASAP. It might turn out to be nothing but a benign cyst, but it's safer to have the vet check it out to know for sure.
