I have a 10-year-old Yorkie named Tyson who developed a large mass on his inner right back leg, which was initially diagnosed as a fatty cyst. Recently, he has experienced significant weight loss, becoming very thin, and the mass is shrinking. Additionally, he has rapidly become blind. He also has bumps on his chest and one in his armpit. What could be causing these symptoms and what tests or treatments should be considered?
