Default Ears

YTJ: I agree about the vet visit, usually dogs have a problem if constantly scratching. For my boy, the vet inspected the ears, cleaned them out, put in the drops, massaged in, and the scratching soon stopped with my home follow-up treatment.
When putting in drops, there is no need to push the dropper far into the ear. The hard part is the massaging afterwards (get the vet to show you how to do this as dogs have weird ear canals!), and if there is pain, that is when the rebellion occurs…in my case anyway. Infected ears HURT!

BC. Sorry that the towel did not work, they can sure put up a fight! As I mentioned earlier, it is very hard to do alone. Also they allow vets and groomers to do this, it is only us they give a hard time to. Grrrr!
Good idea to take a break today. :-)
