I have some medicine I have to put in her right ear twice a day. That's going to be fun. She HATES having her ears messed with.
He said this should clear it up fairly quickly but to make sure I use it the whole time.
Whew! I am so relieved and Susanah seems like she feels better already.
Oh, and after she came around from the gas, she lifted her head and her right ear was standing up! Yay! |
You see I told you all would be fine. Now remember when you bathe her to find a good ear cleaner with a drying agent (Vet Solutions is what I found to be the best here's the web site animalrevival.com). And if you can't stomach to keep the hair from her ear canals clean yourself, take her to a groomer to have it done.
I have a Chi that I began grooming, whose ear wouldn't stand up. I sniffed the ear and whew. I flushed it and began Otomax on it.....the ear stood right up. No problem since.
Now you know what to look for and when you see the yucky junk and smell that horrible smell. You'll know what to do.
Glad all is well.
