I have a shih tsu with a large growth about 1 1/2" diameter that looks like it is filled with water just above his paw. He is 14 yrs old so I do not want to have him put him under anesthetic.
Can I drain this safely on my own by bathing it with hydrogen peroxide, making a small cut to drain it and using an antibiotic ointment?
