My black lab is 8 years old. Within the last month I have noticed 3 knots (all the size of golf balls) growing under the skin near his throat. Two are on his left side and one on his right. Nothing out of the ordinary has happened to him and I haven't changed anything in his diet. Any ideas of what it might be?

It could be fatty tumors that are usually benign in nature or it could be salivary gland issue or a lymph node issue or abcess from previous wounds. You may just call your vet and ask for their opinion.
