Before I take a pharmaceutical approach, I want to know if I can use Apple Cider Vinegar to treat it. Of course I will consult with a vet first before I decide to, but I want to know has anyone had success with the ACV treatment for ear mites?? |
I would just take her to the vet. Those are the same symptoms of a bacterial infection. When i got Lexi i thought she had ear mites after googling the same symptoms you described. The vet said ear mites are actually rare (unless you have a puppy mill dog). Lexi was given ear drops to clear it up. I would rather take my pup to the vet to be sure of what it is and get the proper treatment.
