Hello, My dog has something protruding out of her skin on the tail.
Its close to the end of her docked tail, on bottom side of her tail.
She is a three year old Doberman. The biggest one is in the shape of
rice, has a silvery semi-transparent color and is about 4mm long. The
others are smaller balls and not so transparent. I have taken a few
pictures of it and posted on google's site:

Your help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Dan

I can't help you with a diagnosis but I do wish this barbaric practice of
tail amputation would stop.

I'm not a vet. Husband is. He says it might be cysts. Time to see your vet.
