This loos like a mass and should get tested by your vet to see if tihs is cancerous or not. Due to the color it worries me for possible cancer, so further testing is highly recommended here. I do hope that your furry friend Ricky gets this tested soon and hopefully it is nothing to worry about. Best of luck and take care.
