    Re: dogs ears

    I would take her to your vet to have her ears checked.
    She could have an ear infection, an object in her ear, or mites.

    Definitely get their ears checked out by your vet. They may have an infection, and the vet will probably clean them out for you, and give you drops or something for them. Abbey had a mild ear infecition a while ago, she hated the drops, but they had to be given. Make sure you are cleaning their ears regularly too.

    I tried the drops, and the special lotion, but she won't let me put them in. I even tried to sit on her! I am trying, she has a grooming appointment wednesday. They are supposed to clean them out.

    [IMG]C:\Documents and Settings\USER\My Documents\My Pictures\family\Maggumz.png[/IMG] OMG, I took Maggie to tha vets and tha vet put these drops in her ears, and then cleaned them out with this long q-tip. Now tha odor is gone, I can actually pet her without washing my hands every second. To keep her ears healty, tha vet said to put tha drops in her ears and then use these medicated pads to clean them out, once a week, every week.

    The same thing happened to my dog. Do her ears smell like yeast? Mattie's did, and we took her to the vet's and it turned out to be a ear infection. He gave us some ear medication but we had to repeat it three times to get rid of it fully. Just keep cleaning out her ears daily.
