Lump on dog leg Irish Wolfhound - Histiocytoma?

Hello All, I have an Irish Wolfhound and he has a lump on his leg. He is 4 months old and has not bothered with it, nor is it causing him pain. Is this worth a vet visit? He’s had it about a month and a half so far. We believe it to not be harmful and don’t want to have a large vet bill, risk vs reward situation.

Hello - this is a difficult one.  It could be a histiocytoma, which will often spontaneously disappear.  However, Ringworm might look like this (risk of spread / underlying illness as predisposing factor), as could the start of demodex.  Therefore it may be a good idea to ask your vet to triage the case.
