Hello I live with my mom so I can help her out with stuff she can not do so we have 3 dogs one golden 2 irish setters and both the golden and the male irish setter both all the time have ear infection but the other irish setter the girl never has them we have been too the vet and no matter what both boys have it so we started too wash out thire ears out with some new meds and now they are bleeding what is going on here?
Holly, don't know for sure but I think I would take them back to the vet sounds like a bad reaction to the meds to me.
How did you wash ears out? Bleeding from outer ear or inner ear (the ear canal) ? What are you cleaning ear with?
I have to wash my dogs ears out on a regular basis to prevent ear infections, I have never had them bleed from it.
Hello we took them back too the vet today and the bleeding was coming from them rubing thire ears on the carpet so much that they made it bleed but the vet did say that me and my mom will have too wash thire ears moor offten and with take like a papper towle and wip gentaly in thire ears with ear wips for 6 weeks and see if that helps if not then the vet will fine some other meds for them but for the mean time we have too make sure that they do not start rubing thire ears on anything that will make them bleed again the vet said that thire healing from the rubing will heal over time so I will keep you all inform on what is going on with them thanks
Ask your vet about getting them elizabethan collars. I raise chinese cresteds and we have train their ears to stand upright and this is what I use prevent them from removing the tape.
really? wow cool I will ask him about that I go back in 6 weeks I think it is I have too look on calender but yeah I will ask him and thanks Itort and all of you for your help
Try using cotton balls or soft gauze to clean the ears. I would think the paper towels would be rough on the healing ears. Just make sure you don't drop a cotton ball in the ear.
Hello thanks for all of your help and me and my mom started too use the cotton balls so I think that it is going to feel much better on thire ears now.
Holly if you look on the internet or if there is a petco or petsmart near you they carry the elizabethan collars. They also have blow up collars for them that do the same thing. Not sure of the price. But worth a look.
