Jaw tear?

[mack_is_my_baby]

My hingeback appears to have a tear/cut near his jaw. It’s also affecting how he eats. I’m going to take him to the vet as soon as I can so it doesn’t get infected but I wanted to get your opinion.

Put a little Vaseline on it to keep it soft.

Should I still get it looked at at the vet? I don’t want it to get infected or get worse.

It's never a bad idea to get a vet's opinion.

I’ve got an appointment for tomorrow! Thanks for your advice!
