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! LOL!
   
  16 OZ. Isopropyl Alcohol (60 percent)
  4 Tablespoon Boric Acid
  16 drops of Gentian Violet Solution 1%
   
  Mix together in a alcohol bottle
   
  Shake each time you use to mix up the boric acid.
  Use cotton ball.
  I use this with my dogs works like a charm
   
  Use 2x's a day for 1 week and then evaluate the 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 ...

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.
