Lump on my doodles head.

[Vivian & Mojo]

My 6 month old Labradoodle was neutered this past Monday and I'm trying to keep him quiet. I'm giving him lots of attention, petting and massages and just found a big lump kinda like a cone shape on the center of the top of his head. I never noticed it before and I pet and brush him everyday. I have a vet appt in 4 and a half hours but am really worried. Do doodles have a cone shaped head and maybe I just never noticed it before. I used to have a Siberian Husky and she had a small lump but its normal for huskies so I'm wondering if this is normal also. He doesn't seem in pain when I touched it and perhaps he banged his head maneuvering with the cone.

Update on Mojo::

The Vet said it was normal and as puppy develops it may change until they are about 3 years old. Many dogs have prominent  bumps and It is not a health concern.

Thanks to everyone who commented, I was a nervous wreck.

Thanks for the explanation Elizabeth, it really makes sense now.

Vivian, I don't know for sure if it is correct, but it does seem to explain why the lump might appear and disappear during a puppy's development!

Maybe your vet can verify it?

I will ask my vet about it.

Vivian, I'm glad you can relax, Quincy has huge boney prominence in the middle of his head as well, people are often startled when they feel it. If his head was shaved I think he would be quite the sight. I don't know at what point I noticed it but certainly not when he was really younger.

Thank you Donna, if Mojo's head was shaved he would look like a conehead lol
