so Upset over a puppy breeder!!!

Wow... I heard about that puppy mill. How very, very sad. =(

I truly hope that Gracie "lucked out", and got some decent genes, free of hip dysplasia, luxating patellas, and all of the other common genetic diseases in the breed. And I hope the same for her puppies.

suprisingly other than the kennel cough, rignworms etc she had when I got her as a puppy she seems pretty healthy... When she goes to the vets they said she healthy although she gets yeast infections in her ears very easily other than that she looks great which is a huge relief..

Angelbow: I have two cats who regularly get ear infections. Er, I should say USED to get.

My vet has giving me an ear wash, good for dogs, cats, puppies and kittens. As long as I use that twice per week, we are free of infections. The vet said once per week should be enough. I decided to do twice per week; that way, if I miss one day, I don't need to worry just stay on my schedule.

It isn't very expensive at all, you can order it on line as it does not require a prescription. Preventing the infection in the first place has been most helpful for me.

Two different products, do the same thing. One ear wash is Oti Clens. The other is MalAcetic Otic.
Same routine with each wash. Put in a few drops, use a cotton swab to clean out the ear. And remember to wear your rain gear so you don't get soaked with the inevitable head shake.
