What is wrong with my dog?

What is wrong with my dog?

I think there's something wrong with him, he keeps scratching his ear and then he started scratching more delicately because he'd scratched it too hard. But one night, he was doing it again, but then he started crying a little when he was doing it, so I started petting him and he stopped and lay down again.
I am worried for him, do you know what's wrong? And if you do, can you tell me how to stop it/ cure it?

Either he has ticks or fleas OR he has an ear infection inside his ear. My dog had the same problem. You can just go to you dogs vet, tell the vet what's wrong, and he should give you medicated ear drops or cream :) hoped this helped
xKearax
yeah, he can hurt him self more

Yeah! No problem. Whenever you see your dog scratching though make sure to stop him or it'll get worse. That happened to my dog and he started to bleed :/ don't want tht to happen to yours!
