Lumps on my dog's stomach?

I have a 6 - 8 year old lab mix (rescue so I'm not 100% sure how old he is), he's a bit overweight but other than that happy and semi-active.

Last december a bump appeared on his stomach, my parents decided we should just wait.

Now just today I was petting his stomach and I felt two more smaller lumps, I'm extremely worried.

Could it be cancer, if so could it be the bad kind since it's spreading? :(

We're finacially struggling and it would drain us quite a bit to take him to the vet but we're going to asap.

I just want people's opinions. Has this ever happened to your dog(s)?

    properly, you comprehend how alot of medical doctors say that Pets shouldn't eat human foodstuff as a results of fact of countless motives(digestiing it or begging). What i think of is that think approximately fed it some or if not alot of human foodstuff. interior the previous. the reason canines(or different animals) won't be able to eat human foodstuff is with the help of the fact animals have a manner differant digestive device then human beings. even however they could appear as if they like it its undesirable for his or her abdomen. They dont comprehend greater constructive. And the area you reported approximately it probaly wont harm seems precise. as a results of fact it many times wont to a canines. A canines can troublesome soreness out till a undeniable ingredient purely like us. So mabey your canines has a greater soreness threshold and can take greater soreness then a typical canines (extraordinarily if its a pug)SO here is what TO DO as a results of fact i havent reported yet, your canines could prefer its abdomen pumped looking on its severity so take it to the vet. its not something to be traumatic approximately as long as you get it fixed quickly. so i wish this facilitates as a results of fact each each now and then it somewhat is frightening.

    Usually any lumps on pets arent good. Best recommendation is vet care so they can tell you exactly what it is.

    Could be lymphomas or fat deposits.
