If the ear is dead, it will eventually rot off. Flesh without a blood supply dies and disintegrates. Ganggreen could very well set in and kill the remaining part of the ear, and could also cause a systemic infection (travels through the blood to all parts of the body) which would then be putting your dog's life at risk.

Maybe look into prosthetics if the appearance is bothering you too much.

Best of luck...
