PUPPY EAR CLEANING
Ear cleaning is not very difficult, but it’s often neglected! It is a really important for your Cobberdog puppy’s ongoing health! Why you may ask?
Listen up! Dogs have very long ear canals that have a right angle bend in them, AND, Cobberdogs have long floppy ears. Together, these characteristics create a deep, dark, moist place that air doesn’t circulate through. Also, dogs that like to swim need careful attention to their ears, and most Cobberdogs love to swim! It’s easy too for wax, hair and foreign materials (grass, seeds, etc) to be trapped in the ear canal. And it’s a perfect undisturbed place where yeast and bacteria can flourish!
You can suspect a yeast overgrowth if there’s a cheesy smell around your dog’s head or you notice your dog scratching his ears often. If you notice your pup’s ear is red, itchy or painful, you can be fairly certain there’s an infection and you really should see your vet for help: if you pour solution into an infected ear you can make it worse.
