Lumps - any advice please?

Hi everyone, and thank you for all the pic's of similar lumps and all of your thoughts. It is very intriguing but I do feel loads better about it now. The breeder has come back to me and said that she did notice the small white dot, although she didn't think it felt any different to her other ear. She suggested that as the hair is such a pale colour she felt that maybe mum had made a tiny puncture wound while cleaning her - as often the hair growing back on a wound is white/pale? She advised me to keep an eye on it and unless it grows rapidly or changes in any way to leave it alone. As I don't want to cause her stress at this point I think I will just keep an eye - especially as you have all come up with a few very similar lumps on ears!! I may email a photo to my vet for his thoughts to and if necessary get him to come over instead of taking her to him. I am still giving her treats in her carrier in the hope that she will be happy to go to her outdoor enclosure in it! A trip to the vet will likely put her back a bit. Thank you all again this forum is the best!! Why isn't there one for Pixie-Bobs??!! Mind you I would never get anything done! I have friends (middle aged friends!!) that turn on their Face-Book before doing anything else in the morning - it's the last thing they do at night to!! I have to say I have been a bit scathing- although now I find myself checking in on here just as often!! ;)
