Cookiebaker, I just went through this with my Tucker. I noticed that she was itching her ear and shaking her head, which made me think ear mites. When I looked in her ear part of it was crusted over and the other part of her ear had green puss ooozing from the inside of the ear canal. I cleaned her ear out the best I could and had to wait over a weekend for the vet on Monday. It was in fact an ear mite infection in just that one ear so Tucker had to go home with ear drops.....the infection cleared up within 3 days.

I'm sending positive thoughts for you and Marigold. She sure is a beautiful girl. Did I see Marigold has double paws???? or was that maybe the way she was sitting. Hugs and kisses to Miss Marigold xoxoxoxox Hope you feel better soon.
