Re: [labradoodles] Ears
This sounds great as a x groomer I have always pulled the hair on Sam's ears ...but he doesn't have that much hair in his ears ...In my grooming shop I used Listerine mouth wash. But I noticed with Sam his ears stay moist ... ---Original Message--- From: sheila D Date: 1/20/2007 9:58:30 AM To: labradoodles@yahoogroups.com Subject: Re: [labradoodles] Ears This is a great recipe: This is only for external use and it also will dye the hair so be careful it will turn your dog purple!

Re: [labradoodles] Ears
Renie, Most feed stores or farm supply stores will carry it, but it's only for external use and not recommended for the inside of the ear. The smell comes from bacteria deep in the ear canal. I had a Doodle I was ready to have put down because she had such chronic ear problems for three years and the smell was terrible. We would get them cleared up then the next week they were getting infected again.The vet was going to do surgery and put in tubes, I tried the disenfectant ear cleaner and Original Listerine after clearing the initial infection and she has not had the problem since. Also before we go to the lake or she swims I put in a few drops of Sweet Oil, it repels the water and helps it to drain out better, I got all of this info. from a Homeopathic Remedy Book.
