Current Problem - My female has a bump on her gum line. I made a vet appointment for Monday morning as my vet is out of town for the weekend. I want to know what I can do to help her before we go to the vet. is there any way that we can care for it? does anyone know what it could be?? I am freaking out I dont want something to happen to her. Shes not acting any different and I only just noticed it. it does not have anything coming out of it. it kind of looks like a kanker. or something simular? what can I expect at the vet? and what she I be asking for her to do? What test does she need to do and what test does she not need to do? Thanks in advance. I will try to get a picture of it today. I dont want to stress her out I wish I would have notice it before. I hope she will be okay!?!?!
