Ear Infections

Ear infections are common in dogs, especially those with floppy ears or who spend a lot of time in the water. Symptoms include scratching at the ears, head shaking, and an unpleasant odor from the ears.

Regularly check and clean your dog's ears to prevent infections. Use a vet-recommended ear cleaner and avoid inserting anything deep into the ear canal. If your dog shows signs of an ear infection, consult your vet for proper treatment, which may include cleaning, medications, and identifying any underlying causes.
