Yeast Ear Infection in Dogs

[mako]

Hi Futuremum
Our lab also gets this problem on a fairly regular basis too We used to use the malaseb wash as Christy mentioned but found it didn't do a great deal. We now have an ear cleaner called Epiotic which you can buy from the vet or pet shop. We have found this to work so much better. We clean our boy's ears out once a week when he is better and use baby wipes and cotton buds to clean the outer ear. When he has the infection again we use the Epiotic daily and antibiotics twice daily and we use a cream on his paws too as he scratches and chews himself too.

I hope you find something that works for your pet

Oh thanks I just can't stand the shaking, shaking and all we have to say is do you want some drops in the ears and she runs under the table

Poor thing, her ears get really red too. I must say it's been better since I posted this thread and maybe the fur clipped off has helped too

futuremum do you have any drops?? If you do,you can put some on the part of the ear that is red.
My dog pretends he doesn't hear us and looks the other way when we ask him if he wants his ears fixed They are too clever lol

Yes the drops we have at the moment are pet shop drops just called aristopet ear cleaner but before that we had cleaning drops we got from the vet, we've also got medicated canine dermotic drops.

I haven't got around to getting the Illium Oticlean spray yet but she seems to be a little bit better lately.
Yes they are clever.

She knows some words like drops in the ears : schmackos: in the car:
