Engli's got a pretty good lump on her chest. Some time back the vet did an aspirate and checked it and it only showed fat. Kind of strange for such a lean girl to have this lump thing there.





 
It's called a lipoma. My beagle Josie has one too, also on her chest in the same spot. She's very lean; my dad has always kept her at an even 25 lbs, and would give her a little less food if she even got to 26. (Now he lets her be at 26 cause she's getting old, lol.)

Apparently it's pretty normal. Josie's has gotten a little bigger over the years, but not by much and she's never had another one come up either. And she's 13 now and has had it for a few years.
