Cauliflower Canker Sore
Hey folks, Happy new year!
I was brushing Moja's teeth tonight, when I found what looked like a massive canker sore. At first, it looked like a new tooth had sprouted all wrong out of her top gum line, but it was surrounded by what look like tiny canker sores.
Looking it up it looks alot like the fourth picture here http://www.marvistavet.com/html/body_canine_viral_papillomas.html
Anyone have any experience with this? It looks benign for the most part. Should I not brush that side of her mouth?
I'm taking her to the clinic tomorrow, hopefully it is nothing worse than the papillomas virus.
I keep telling her not to make out with everyone she meets, but she does what she wants anyway.

Best to have it looked at by a vet in case removal is necessary.

@wrlybrindle- yep She's Haru x Akashi, good to know about the vitamin C- I'll give it a week or so to see if they go away.
@StaticNFuzz, thanks for the links
We're due for some photos of Moja, by the way...
I know that Koda got it from puppy socialization and training classes. Those darn puppies always wanted to kiss him. The good news is, they all got it, and I was able to arrange puppy play dates with the infected dogs.
@tjbart17 Yep. That sounds pretty awful. Moja has it two spots, hopefully it won't spread any further.
I'm still itching to brush her teeth, its been over a week! I might just do the parts that are not affected.
