Growths on my dog's ear?

What about it?

I've been away for a while and came to pick up my dog from dog sitting and she's got these growths. She's struggled with ear infections for years but I've never seen anything like this

Fairly severe separation anxiety in senior dog.

What about it?

My 14yo chihuahua has developed severe separation anxiety over the last year, getting far worse the last six months. It’s at the point where only sometimes I can get away with leaving him in my bed for a few hours alone without a freak out, but that’s it. I have been going through a lot of changes the last couple years, and it is definitely related to that. It appears mostly related to my marital issues. We separated for six months, lived apart, got back together, but are now semi separated but living together, with me spending a lot of time at my mothers (I bring the dog with me). He has been with me and my husband and I since he was nine months old, but he is no longer able to spend much time with my husband even in our own home without starting to whine and go find me. If he hears the front door open, he freaks out. It got much worse about six months ago. I was spending a couple weeks at a time with at my moms and not bringing him with me, and he started melting down and forcing his way out the cat door when left alone. Locking him in a room keeps him safe, but he cries and yowls for hours on end. I’m not working at the moment, but I’d like to be able to leave my house without him freaking out. I understand why he’s doing it and why it started but I don’t know how to help him.
