What's the pea-sized lump in my dog's ear? She's shaking and whining.

Question

I would like advice on what this could be inside my dogs ear. I’ve only noticed it today it’s about the size of a pea. She’s been shaking her head a bit today and whining. Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Medium (23 - 60lb) | Female | unspayed | 26 lbs

Wow, something very strange. It looks like Pimms likely has an ear infection, in addition to whatever that critter/plant material is that has attached itself to her ear. She needs to get to a vet ASAP. This is certainly not life threatening, but I would still consider going to an emergency clinic for promote evaluation, cleaning, and treatment because she's probably quite uncomfortable. Good luck!
