mysticpaw Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 Started talking to a guy at work today, his dog has what he described as a "wet ear." From what I can gather the dogs ear makes a squelchy noise when he rubs it, similar I would think to swimmers ear. He has taken the dog to the vet , who gave him alcohol based drops that would dry up the ear????? Was wondering if anyone else has had a similar problem.

Mystiqview Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 Used to have it when I had dobermanns who have floppy ears. Dogs with floppy ears are more likely to have ear problems with dogs with pricked ears as the flap traps dirt and water. We used to get the first aid metho from chemists and put a few drops of that in the ear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
