Concerned growth

Not sure if you can tell from the picture, but my 7 year old has had this growth from his chest for sometime now, but over the weekend I could notice it looked like it bothered him while hunting, was red and looked like it was getting cut up. Normal??

Re: beeper collars

Go with the collar that has the locator button. Then your not having to listen to it beep every 5 seconds or on point. Just hit the locate button if you have lost track of your dog, one small beep and you have him located again. If my dog hears the beep tone he finds me. I have the DT system.
