More importantly I’m concerned if it sounds like anything dangerous. My knowledge she has not been injured however mom gets aggressive sometimes when they try to feed she barks growls and bites them sometimes. This one appears to be across both eyes and does not appear to have any pain but is squishy when you push on it. They are doberman pinschers and last time we had a set over a year ago we had an injury happened to one of the puppies and it also had sustained a bump on one side of the head over one of the eyes. My dog had puppies 5 weeks ago and one of the puppies has a soft bump on its head but I noticed a couple days ago.

The dog came in as an emergency appointment and had surgery to remove the diseased tissue and repair the gap, she made a full recovery. It is very rare for a small umbilical hernia to become an emergency situation, I have only encountered this once where the hernia became strangulated, the small amount of abdominal fat which had pushed through the gap had twisted on its self and lost its blood supply leading to a purple firm and painful lump being felt underneath the dog. The small soft variety of lump is often left and the owner asked to feel at it every day at home and report any changes to their vet, as you have mentioned the other option is that the gap can be surgically closed under general anaesthesia specifically to treat the hernia or when your puppy is being spayed. If however the lump is large, not readily pushed back into the abdomen, changes colour, texture or is painful then urgent action need to be taken. Umbilical hernias are often first noticed when your puppy has its first check at the vets, provided the lump that can be felt is small, soft and easily pushed back into the abdomen then your vet will tell you not to worry about it. Through this gap some of the contents of the abdomen may poke through and be felt as a soft lump around the region where your dog’s belly button (umbilicus) would be found. In some animals, like your little puppy, this strong white line is not complete and there is a gap of varying size anything from a few millimetres up to a few centimetres.
These muscle layers are joined by a white strip of strong tissue called connective tissue, which forms the Linea Alba, which runs along the mid line of your pet’s abdomen just underneath the skin. The abdomen of most animals is made up of the organs inside it, a layer of fatty tissue and then three layers of muscle.
