| Does Fidos ears stand up or flop over? We had a german shepard / lab mix who had floppy ears. We had a terrible time with yeast infections in her ears and the odor was enough to gag a person. I purchased some liquid from the vet by the case as I had to clean her ears out twice a day with it to prevent reinfection. It is something you have to stay on top and couldn't let it slip... learned that the hard way after the first few times b/c it kept reoccuring. Peggy, Monkey & Maddie

| I agree, probably ear or yeast infection. The vet would be the best bet! Hope he's feeling better soon. |

| What kind of food do you feed? I had the same problem with my dog until I switched food. |
