GENERAL INFORMATION Close expanded article descriptions
Cleaning Your Dog's Ears
Cleansing your pet's ears should be a weekly ritual from a very young age. Cleaning ears and allowing adequate air circulation is especially important for dogs with long or floppy ears.
Common Ear Infections (and Causes) in Dogs
Learn which infections most commonly affect dogs’ ears and what you can do to prevent them.
Ear Care
A dog's L-shaped ear canal makes it difficult to examine. An otoscope is the perfect tool for your veterinarian to use to detect ear problems early.
Ear Mites: Transmission & Treatment
One hallmark of ear mite infestation is an abundant dark brown or black, waxy discharge. Also, ear mites cause intense itching which leads to constant shaking of the head and/or scratching at ears.
Ear Odor: A Sign of Infection
You've noticed your dog is scratching his ears vigorously, as well as shaking his head frequently. You've examined the ear, and can't see any evidence of dirt, but you do detect a foul odor. This is a tell-tale symptom of an ear infection.
