    Be careful when you bathe him.......do NOT get his ears of head wet!


    That ear mite medicine has to stay in his ears a full 30 days to work properly. I know, we just went through this with Taz, he to was not a happy camper
    !!

    Don't worry, 30 days goes by pretty fast! Good luck with this.

    I wondered about that because they said no baths for 2 days after the advantage...guess I will need to spray him with perfume???
    don't breed or buy while shelter dogs die....

    I have been frosted!

    Nah, just take a wet washcloth and clean him up!


    We have a special washcloth just for Taz.......he gets his butt washed on a regular basis he has a lot of litter box issues.

    Have fun wiping butts and such!

    If the Advantage Multi is anything like the Frontline Plus then yes you shouldn't bathe for 2 days. However you should be able to get away with a mild spray of water only on the hiney to help cut down the smell and mess until you can give him a full bath in a couple days.

    I havenn't put on the advantage multi...the vet cleaned the ears and medicated and I bought the advantage multi for prevention in the future.

    I called and they said I could bathe him but avoid the ears, he doesn't smell too bad and I want his ears to get better.
