about a year ago my boxer had a pink spot that grew to the size of an eraser on her bottom lip, we had it removed. Now I notice two more spots, both around the black of her nose-does anyone have any information to share. She is a mess right now, she has been limping for about a month and the doctor has had her on drugs, but they are not helping and she has just been begging for attention more that her normal self. We are trying the vet again, but now i am worried more with these new pink spots!!!

Firstly which leg or shoulder etc is she limping from?
This info will determine what type of response you may get.
Secondly are the pink spots flat or nodular?
Flat pink spots are usually caused by a lack of pigmentation and are one problem.
Raised pink lump like areas are totally different.
More info ,please:)

Tiberious developed something similar to this and it looked to me like a wart. It was on a stem and was I guess you would call it nodular. We took him to see Dr. Brown in bradenton and she removed it and had it tested. She also told us that it could be a Viral Lymphoma (please excuse the spelling ) which was nothing to worry about and probably picked up at the park in water dish or something,or it could be cancerous. It went out and came back as being the lymphoma and therefore nothing to worry about. I freaked when she said cancer and cannot tell you how relieved I was when it came back ok. I hope all works out OK but I would definitely stay on that limping issue.
