Hi everyone, i havent had a chance to post in a while due to work being busy. I need to post some new pictures of Bianca.. her tear stains have really cleared up!!!
here is my question:
Ever since Bianca had an ear infection back in january, from time to time now, she gets smelly ears (especially in her left one) In january, there was a lot of brown wax and the vet cleaned the ears out and gave me drops to use for a few days...
what i have noticed now is that sometimes her ears smell bad... and I will look at it and usuually it looks fine.. sometimes if i take a cotton pad and swab it, the cotton pad looks a little dirty but not much.. the groomer keeps her ears plucked and in fact she was just at the groomer this past sunday and I noticed her ears smelled again yesterday.. Ive taken her to the vet and he says there is no infection or anything and that its ok.. I really do not think it is ok tho.. sometimes she even will scratch inside the ear and then lick her paw which i hear they do when they have an ear ache..
does anyone have any ideas about what to do for this? i know when my ear is sore, i put some hydrogen peroxide in it and it bubbles for a while adn then drains out and feels better.. the groomer said to definitely not use that on the dog, it can burn their ears.
