Hi Doctor, My 4.5 month old Golden Retriever puppy suddenly developed bulge on his back under the skin. It’s visible from outside. It’s soft and moving when touched. We are sure it was not there before. Is that something to be concerned?Another thing, He was playing with other dog yesterday morning when he felt hard on his back. Is it possible to develop bulge from that? It doesn’t feel like swelling bone and when touched he is not cranky or not in pain. He is active & playing.

My shih Tzu puppy is around 45 days, recently he started eating his own poop and now he has stopped but the poop colour has changed from brown to almost black. I’m little worried. What could be the cause of this? I am giving him Cerelac - wheat apple which the breeder had suggested with Woodward for digestion one spoon a day.
