PBurns 9 Posted March 6, 2006 Report Share Posted March 6, 2006 Some other maintenance and fix-it things on ears: Trim the hair inside the ear. Some pluck, but a little battery trimmer is easier on the dog and very cheap. Also, swab the inside of the ears with vinegar -- changing the PH balance discourages infection and stips off any wax buildup. If a dog has serious buildup of matter in the ear, a waterpic with warm water will help break it up (a good tool for cleaning wounds too, expecially punctures), and cephelaxin antibiotic will knock down infection. Treat for mites as ready recommended. Patrick Quote Link to post

The Drops are called AURIZON,He said it was caused by the ear been inflamed,but didnt say anything about the muck what was in the ear.I have to give her them once a day in BOTH EARS,cause if i just treat 1 ear the other 1 could get infected,and it will start all over again,just for 7days, Quote Link to post
