Ear odor Can you give me tips on getting rid of "stinky ears"? She isnt digging in her ears as if it were ear mites, but they do have an odor. |
She most likely has a yeast infection and needs to be seen by a vet to get meds |
Could be a yeast infection as well as mites.You will have to take her to the vet although they sell meds at the pet store for mites they don't for yeast infections. best wishes from Max and I.:) |
I'm not a professional, but sounds like a yeast infection. Have it checked by a vet and he\she will probably give you Otimax drops for the ears. Good luck and let us know.:) |
Never heard of that in ears, but then again this is my first puppy in years. She goes next week for round two of shots so I will have it checked out. Thanks! Quote:

Black and itchy could be mites Black and sour smelling could be infection Brown and maybe sweet smelling could be yeast infection The vet will probably do a cytology and give you otomax. I would recommend going that way but I have seen a product online called Zymox that you could try if you're sure it isn't mites. Of course it is always better to see a vet. |
When I got my first yorkie, she stunk, I bathed her right away and she still stunk..she wasn't itching her ears, but, come to find out, it was earmites.. |
When i first got Max not matter how much i bathed him his ears stank so i took him to the vet and they cleaned them real good and put him on drops now he has a sweet smelling little head :) |
It does sound like an infection in the ears. Toto had one caused by getting water in there when she was groomed. The groomer was supposed to be pulling the hairs but the vet found that she was just sticking the scissors way down in there & snipping them off! No doubt, I am now her groomer!! :eek: Yep! She looks "gapped" and kinda ragged, but I know that she has ear plugs in her ears when she is bathed! Poor baby never scratched at her ears either but they smelled and she ran a high temperature. She was on meds for a month. |
Maggie is suseptable to ear infections in her rt ear. The vet gave her otomax, we're down to using it once a week now. Her hear is much better now, no odor. |
