Black crusty or ulcerated lump on dog’s ear
About 6 weeks ago (4/2012) my dog got a round red bump on his ear. We watched it for a week and tried to squeeze it a little to see if anything would come out but it didn't. The following week it started to turn black with a red perimeter. It doesn't appear to be...
