• vedder33 Posted : 3/3/2014 1:03:43 PM Do you know if these go away on their own?  He is due for his yearly check up, I just wanted to hear if others had any experiences with this.   0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• Michele68 Posted : 3/4/2014 7:51:55 AM I agree, I would have a vet take a look just to be safe. It's easier to deal with an issue when its small than have it get out of hand and become a real problem. 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• calliecritturs Posted : 3/4/2014 10:06:43 AM A papilloma   usually would be on the gum itself rather than on the jowls -- I'd honestly have the vet check it.  Could be nothing.  Papillomas aren't serious -- they're viral usually (L-Lysine can help).   But any "change" like that always makes me want the vet to see it. 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.
