My basset hound/black lab mix, 9 years old, female, has developed bulbous enlargements at the back of BOTH of her hocks (they almost look like testicles, haha). They are hairless and reddish. She is not limping and has no trouble navigating the steps of our home. Since it is bilateral, and she is showing no distress, I'm less inclined to think this is the result of an injury. We have an appointment set up with the veterinarian in town for Friday. Any preliminary thoughts would be gratefully appreciated.
I've searched throughout the internet and it keeps coming up with swollen hock syndrome, but she shows none of the other symptoms, and the photos do not look like what she has. The entire hock itself isn't swollen, just the back of it, like fleshy golf balls are attached.
