Black Growth on Dog’s Ear

May 14, 2013

Hi Ian,

This growth appears to be benign.
You wrote,

“…sometimes bleeds, has been there for approx. 6 months.”

You did not mention whether it started off much smaller and has grown to this size over 6 months, or if the growth was first noticed at the current size, and has remained the same. Since it sometimes bleeds, that indicates that it might get infected. Does he scratch? Scratching the area would certainly cause it to be inflamed and irritated.

VACCINATIONS are a prime cause of these growths.

I suggest that you seek the help of a holistic veterinarian, to write an exemption to prevent future vaccinations.

Another resource for vets knowledgeable in homeopathy is AVH.org.
