    Both my girls had a wart on their lips, same spot which I think they got from ball sharing at the dog park. Went to Vet for diagnosis. No treatment necessary, went away on it's own in a few weeks.

    Cookie had a wart on his back leg. Nothing serious, unless it's bothering him. Eventually it will fall off on its own, just don't be scared they may bleed a lot.
