I have one. It's a minor birth abnormality. It's a small on the top of your ear close to your face. It's about one inch deep and it can get infected. It's a minor birth abnormality and could be a trait that runs through families or it can be a symptom of other problems. People with ear pits should get their hearing checked regularly as this can be a sign of other ear problems.

What kind of ear cropp is better for a pitbull?
This is really a matter of personal opinion as this is really only a cosmetic operation. There are generally four accepted styles of ear crop for Pit Bulls: the Battle Crop, Short Crop, Show Crop and Long Crop. The Battle Crop involves removing the entire of the outer ear and, as its name suggests, is usually seen on Dogs destined for the pit. The Short Crop is one of the most common crops seen on Pit Bulls and involves leaving only a small amount of the outer ear intact. The Show Crop is for owners who want to show their Dogs and involves the ears being shortened slightly and cut into the desired pointed shape so that the Dog looks smart and alert for the show ring. The Long Crop is quite rarely seen on Pit Bulls and takes the longest to heal, it involves leaving the ear as long as possible and only trimming what is needed to give a nice pointed shape. So, it is up to you.

What is small hole above ear?
This is known in the biz as a "preauricular pit." For the sake of orientation, here's a bit of anatomy: the outer rim of the ear is called the helix. The area where the helix is attached to the face is known as the helical root. A preauricular pit is a tiny (1 to 2 millimeter) hole in the skin of the helical root.Pits are present at birth; they form during early fetal development. In the 5th to 6th week post-conception, 6 tiny lumps of tissue begin merging, and by the 20th fetal week, these lumps have formed the external ear. If this process is something less than perfect, any number of external ear anomalies may result. Preauricular pits are (arguably) one of the milder anomalies that may result from imperfect external ear development. They are skin-lined and are typically less than one inch in depth.Pits are significant for two reasons. First, pits can become infected. An infected pit usually presents as a soft or hard swelling at the helical root; press on the swollen area, and a drop of pus will emerge from the pit. This can be treated with antibiotics, of course, but if the pit keeps getting infected you would probably want to have it surgically removed. This can be done under local anesthesia. You must make sure that your surgeon is familiar with pits. Simply excising the outer (visible) portion of the pit is inadequate; the surgeon must excise the entire pit. An ear, nose and throat surgeon would be the best choice for this procedure, since we all have experience with pits.Pits are also significant because they can be an indicator for other ear problems. In other words, there is a higher-than-chance association of pits with other (less visible) ear anomalies. These "deeper" anomalies are important because they usually impair hearing to some degree. You may or may not have noticed such a hearing loss; the loss may be mild, and may easily have gone unnoticed on school audiograms.Philip Roy Jones. Vancouver bc, prev Braintree Essex England
