|  Growth under eye My 6 year old has a growth that keeps forming under her eye. She has had it since she was 3 when I got her. I HAVE taken her to the vet for it and I don't remember the specific name she called it but said that I can keep bringing my dog back for her to shave it off, which sounds like a great way for her to make money off office visits as opposed to a treatment. I've noticed since then when I bath her, if I put conditioner on it, it'll pull off pretty easily. I wasn't offered any treatments for it but I was wondering if anyone else had this issue and was successful. It seems like a bump but if I don't keep it clean it turns into long bumpy thing. I pulled it apart once and it seemed like fur and dirt, if that helps describe it. It doesn't seem to be like the clumps she gets from her tears as it is always in the exact same spot. |

| Please get a second opinion since it keeps returning. This could turn into something very serious unless taken care of once and for all.

| Let me also throw in, it's not irritating or bothering her. She acts like it isn't even there and doesn't yelp when I clean it |

| I agree, I would have another doctor take a look.

| It sounds like it could be a defective hair follicle. |
