QuestionI know this is not the kind of dog you specialize in but I have a 1 year old pitbull who has a skin growth on his right paw. It has been growing for a good two months now and seems to slowly be getting bigger. INow I can touch it and it does not bother him. and I tried even squeezing it a little and it seems like it does not bother him the slitest bit. I was just wondering if this is common or if I should do anything about it?

There are a wide variety of things this could be - something as simple as a skin tag which can be snipped right off by a vet, or as complicated and nasty as a tumor of some sort. It's important to have a vet check it so you catch any potential problems early.
