I used to point things out to vets all the time that they missed, like lumps or fleas. Once, even lice on a guinea pig.

I don't think my vet really checks the dogs for lumps when they go, unless I ask him about a certain one.

I was spayed at only five months, which has already greatly reduced my chances of getting it. Summerhttp://www.sparklecat.comnoreply@blogger.com
