| Leather Ear Having just come back from holiday I have discovered my 10 year old Yorkie has leather ear, has any one a treatment I can start using on her? I live in the United Kingdom so may find it difficult to buy medication if it is from the US. |

| Yep, Villette is right on. There are treatments that don't require lots of fancy, expensive, "available only with prescription" meds.. |

| Good luck in your search, I do not know much about Leather Ear, but I know it has been discussed a lot on here. Let us know what you find out and how your baby does.

| Do you have "Head and Shoulders" shampoo? If so, wash the ear leather each day with it and rinse it good. After a few days the black should just peel off and new hair growth should start shortly after. |
