I apologize if this post appears twice. I mistakingly posted as a guest.

Odin has developed a couple of hard spots near his scar. Just wondering if anyone has experienced this. Odin is 5 weeks post amp We are going to vet for chemo tomorrow so will check with him obviously, but I thought I would ask everyone first.

Thanks,

Jon and Odin

You know I think that sounds like a "keloid" scar, which is just a buildup of collagen around the original scar, giving it a hard, rubbery and shiny appearance. Pretty sure that's normal, I'm guessing your vet will have a better idea though. Let us know what you learn!
