My dog has a hard small lump on her right ear. What could it be? Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Large (61lb +) | Female | spayed | 3 years and 10 months old | 83 lbs

It is difficult to say from the image but the hard lump could be a cyst, mass, or even an embedded tick. If the lump increases in size, becomes irritated, or persists for more than a few days, I would have it assessed by a veterinarian.
