Our lab constantly has yeast infections that we have to constantly treat. I would like to know if anyone has advice on what medications seem to work the best for a chronic case of yeast ear infections.
We had a great Dane and needed to wash his ears out with a cleaner every month to prevent issues like this.
Did you have a recommendation for an ear wash?
Pretty sure the stuff we had was called virbac
Does your dog get his ears wet a lot? Keeping them dry under the flaps is the best way to prevent it.
Nope. Doesn’t get wet much. She is a lab and they are prone to these issues.
We don’t have any water that she gets into other than when we bathe her.
Does your dog have skin issues or anything that seems related to allergies? I am dealing with allergies that cause skin issues like bumps, and flaky skin. I was advised to keep my dog’s ears clean as allergies that cause skin issues can also cause ear infections. I don’t have anything to recommend in terms of medicine but just something to consider as a possible cause if your dog has allergies.
I have a lab with frequent ear infections. The best ear cleaner I’ve found is Epiotic for weekly cleanings and we keep a bottle of MotaZol around for when the ear is actually infected.
