Does anyone know what this is???

Check this out....here is a picture of Oliver and he has this "pimple" thing by his eye - anyone ever seen one of these before???

It is too far away in the picture to tell, how long has it been there, does it look like a pimple, or more like a pencil eraser, it could be a sty but it isn't very close to his eye, most of all leave it alone and possibly have a vet look at it.

Looks like a pimple to me.

Co-Pilot gets pimples quite often, I would keep an eye on it, and (leave it alone) to decide what you should do.

Oliver is a cutie!

Oliver is such a cutie but what a menace! Total personality all the time and his underbite is HUGE - he always has teeth or tongue or both sticking out. Thanks for the info. I am gonna watch it!

Very difficult to see in this photo - is the surface smooth or cauliflower-like? If it's like cauliflower, it's a wart and there's nothing to do for it but to wait for it go away. If it's smooth it could be a comedo (pimple) or an abnormal growth. If you hold a penlight right next to it does the light come through it? If not, then it's solid or pus. If the penlight DOES transilluminate this, then it's a cyst of some kind. How old is Oliver? I only ask because MCTs are more common on the head area in younger animals...

Call me a worrier, but I think I'd be inclined to go to the vet. Styes are generally right on the eyelid, along the edge. And aren't warts and pimples usually on the muzzle?

I hope all's well. He's a real cutie!

My puppy Bubster is 3, this has been here on him since he was 6 months or so, vet said it was normal, it never went away.....Here is a pic

Bubster is cute! In response to viralmd, it is solid and smooth so I think it is a pimple of some kind. Last night I think it had actually reduced in size. I don't think it is a sty...going to keep watching it though. Oliver is 1 year old.

I'm such a worry wart....I've have it checked out. When is your next appointment for him?? If it's not to far away, I'd wait...but.....

IF it does need to come out....be it malignant for not....the smaller it is when it is taken out the better.
