Dog with a skin tag? - skin tag dog lip
My seven years (from the adoption of protection estimated) Mischlingshündin has a small piece of skin on the lip. It is like a day of the skin that some people there have neck or back. It is the same color of the lips, and only about 2 mm long. Of course, this does not mean to disturb. There for about 6 months and has not changed at all.
Could or should they be removed?
What cause?
Thank you!

Your right that dogs can get "tagged" or skin tumors. These cancers are usually only a cosmetic problem, but to grow in May in some cases near the eye, the problems, in which case they must be surgically removed by your veterinarian, can cause.
You must bring your dog to the veterinarian to ensure that it is indeed a benign tumor of the skin and not something more serious, your vet should be able to determine simply by examining the growth. If it looks suspicious or abnormal, he or she may recommend a biopsy.
If it is determined that only one word "skin" is not a problem for your pet, and finally the decision to remove. Remember, if you opt for cosmetic surgery, anesthesia decide, but much safer than in recent years, there is a risk that complications may occur. In addition, the stress comes from the procedure itself and can not be the best option for your friend if he is not worried about it.
Only a veterinarian can tell you. The dogs are registered on the skin - my vet separated by a pair of scissors, but I do not advise you to do, and nobody knows exactly what it is. Just pop in to the vet if they do not live seriously and does not bother me, probably just with that.
