Can You Hear Me Now?
Animals are prone to the same issues with their ears as us humans are. The only difference is that a cat can’t grab a cotton swab and have a go at it if there is water in their ear while a dog can’t administer drops in case of an ear infection.
That is where we come in to help. By taking care of our pet’s ears, we not only help them out, but we save ourselves a trip to the vet. One of the most common issues that I witnessed while working in a vet hospital is ear infection. I would guestimate that at least one pet every other day would come in and subsequently leave with a small dose of antibiotic drops to be applied twice a day for 10 days.

There are products that help to keep our pet’s ears clean and dry. Just like with humans, there are drops for swimmers ear, general cleaning and drying, and also for mild ear infections. Some of these drops are meant to be used after baths and summer playtime in the pools and ponds. Others are only to be use if an ear infection has started. Please consult the directions on the bottles for proper usage instructions. If used properly, these eardrops can help keep you and your pet happy.
