Mast Cell Tumors in Dogs

 

Mast Cell Tumors and Stomach Ulcers

Because mast cell tumors release histamine into the bloodstream, they can cause an increase in the production of stomach acid, which sometimes results in ulcers.

In addition to a mass or growth, your dog may exhibit the following symptoms:

  • Loss of appetite
  • Vomit that looks bloody or like coffee grounds
  • Black or tarry stools
  • Abdominal pain
