Hi. I'm Dr. Gotthelf. I have been a vet for 33 years and I would like to use my experience to help you with your pet's medical problem.

What looks like a wart on most dogs is a benign tumor called a sebaceous adenoma.

I have a CO2 laser and I most often will vaporize these growths off. Depending on the size, it may require a suture or a staple to close the skin.Dr. Louis Gotthelf41092.0667417477

Laughing out loud!!! I don't do fish questions. I'll release this question so another vet can answer.
