Default Hope This Help..i Have The Same Problem

My yorkies ears are covered in black stuff, what can I do?

The black coating is referred to as Leather Ear, or Winter Ear, and it is thought to be a fungus. What I have found useful in clearing it up is washing the ears daily with head and shoulders shampoo and letting it set on the ears for about 5 minutes, then rinsing if off. Within a few days the black can be peeled off the ear. Another remedy that is supposed to be good is to use alcohol to wipe the ear down and coat with Lotrimin 1%, doing this daily until the condition is gone
