My Golden Retriever has had a red bump on his stomach for about 6-7 months.  I've noticed that it has grown from about the size of a marble to near that of a golf ball.  I can't see it being a bite of any sort.  What could it be?

Run, don't walk to your vet. Goldens have
a tendency to develop cancer. This growth
should be checked as soon as possible.
