I brought Edgar home from the groomers this week (he has a shnauzer cut). now i'm noticing inside the tips of his ears are some small booboos. they seem to be getting worse. it's almost like a human scrape. it's not a huge wound but it's sort of crusty and gross (not pussy tho)
i think i noticed b/c his hair is so short now.

i think our lab may be chewing on them (he chews on hers!) but i haven't seen her do it. i dont' think he could be doing it himself.

so, 2 questions to all my yorkie assistants out there
1. is it safe to clean with peroxide (tho he might hate it)
2. can i put bitter apple on his ears to discourage Ganja from using his ears as a chew toy?

any other info is helpful
