Re: [labradoodles] Ear infections...

Our breeder gave me this when we bought our standard size poodle from them.    The ear med. is half alcohol, half white vinegar. The alcohol kills any bacteria and the vinegar brings the ear ph levels back to normal. Helps to use it after a good bath as a precautionary or if she's been swimming.   ----- Original Message ----- From: Tara To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, November 05, 2004 9:05 AM Subject: RE: [labradoodles] Ear infections... My three year labradoodle had his first ear infection a couple of months back and the vet had given him Otimox. It cleared up right away no problem and he luckily hasn't had another since. However, the vet did say that if he would continue to get them, she would consider cutting all of the hair out of his ears. I'm not sure if your doodle has the hairy ear problem or if you've already had it removed if it does, but she said that this would help prevent the yucky brown stuff from developing to the degree that it does and prevent infection. My first vet did say that ear infections might be a problem with him since he had the floppy ears. Not sure if this helps at all, but it was what I was told. Good luck!             __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Check out the new Yahoo! Front Page. www.yahoo.com Yahoo! Groups Sponsor Get unlimited calls to U.S./Canada Yahoo!
