Question
Hi there, My big St Bernard Mastiff mix has a small white bump on the side of his cute pink tongue. He lets me play with it so it does not appear to bother him and he hasnt had any changes in his appetite or behavior... My vet opens on Monday and I will take him in but am wondering right now.

Than you.

Answer
Dear Ronnie,

Thanks for your question.

I am pleased that your are concerned about your dog.

I wouldn't worry so much about the white bump on your dogs tongue. This could be perfectly normal. In some cases this could be a type of disease, so I'm glad your seeing your vet just in case. They will give you the best advice.

Hope this helps,

Ben.
