Q6) How often should we clean our dog’s ears? What is the best way to do it?

Ans : Cleaning once a week is best. Dogs have very sensitive ears, and hate to have them cleaned, so be very gentle. You can dip a ball of cotton in liquid paraffin, or use a soft cloth. Swab out both the ears, inside, as deep as you can comfortable go. Never use any hard, pointed object to clean the ears, as it can cause permanent damage. Be sure to clean the little fold at the side. If you think that the ear smells, and needs to be cleaned form inside, you can put a couple of drops of Waxolve, or some other eardrop, taking the advice of your vet.
