I thought I had cleaned out her ears pretty good but I guess not. Anyway, doc says she'll be fine, he drained it for her and she about licked him to pieces! I guess he was a yummy vet! So, he said to be sure to put these drops in her ears when she's swimming or bathing so this doesn't happen again. My son had the same problem as a kid...swimmers ear!
Here's the best part...NO fee for the visit! He welcomed us to town and said he hopes to see us again.
Wow -- what a nice vet -- no fee for a Sunday visit! I am so glad to hear it was only a little water in her ears! I had not realized that would make them so off balance as to actually fall down like that. Good to know. I have those drops for anyone that needs them after swimming in our pool and had not thought to use them for the pups. I will definately keep it in mind. Thanks for passing on a good lesson. Again -- thankful your Curly is feeling so much better and it was nothing serious. Congrats on finding such a great vet too.
