Dog Ear and Fungle Infection Problems?

My dog has very bad ears and fungle infection. I have taken him to the vet and he gave me some medicine that was supposed to help him approximately in 2 weeks and flush to clean his ears out good but look like nothing help him. He just acts so bothered by his ears and is constantly shaking his head to the point where he gives himself scars at the tips of his ears :-( It is very sad but I don’t know what to do anymore.

  1. How long has this been going on? Has the dr addressed the possibility of an underlying allergy? Is he on any oral medications? Sometimes topicals aren’t enough.

    Have him rechecked by your veterinarian or get a second opinion.

    Sometimes, if a medication does not cure the problem then the problem may be an incorrect diagnosis.

    Get yourself some Revolution. It’s a flea/heartworm preventer that you put on the back of the neck. Before administering though you must have your dog heart worm tested by the vet. To give this to a dog that has already got heartworm can be fatal.

    Squeeze almost all of the vial on the dog and just a few drops in each ear.

    Problem solved.

    what med are u using? my aunt has cockers she use gold bond meditcated foot powder. works well and dries their ears out, she used it for years.

    she cleans them first…I use oticlean A made by ARC labs. I get mine from petedge.com.

    then clean out w a cotton ball be gentle and don’t stick ur finger to far in the dogs ear. do this until the cotton ball is clean. and dry then add a puff of the foot powder. it worked on all my dogs better then the meds the vet would give me. even my older dog who had califlower ear and would get infections a good bit mostly in the spring and fall.

  5. Your vet needs to put your dog under anesthesia and flush the ears and suction out the wax and infection. He should be on oral antibiotics, and the ears cleaned daily at home with an otic foam/rinse before treating with the cream. He should also be wearing an e-collar to prevent him from scratching at his ears and injuring them further.

    After this is cleared up, I suggest finding out why the infection began in the first place. Often it is food allergies, causing them to itch, water in the ear canals, or foriegn objects (like foxtails). If you don’t fix the primary problem, he will continue to have trouble with this exact result.

    SEE YOUR VET!

    Don’t put flea and tick prevention in your dog’s ears EVER!
    It hasn’t been that long for the medication to kick in, I’d keep trying.

    Ears can be very tricky. Home Remedies are NOT the way to go.

    my dog did this and my ventanarian suggested cleanig the scars and sore marks 3 times a day 5 at the most just keep cleaning and flushing out his ears dont let him drink out of the toliet (if he does)

  8. Ask your Vet to test your dog for Staph infection. Some resistant strains of Staph look like fungal infections.

  9. We have one female golden retriever with a similar problem. After cleaning the ears with the rinse, we dry them really good and apply a little triple anitbiotic ointment to the sore spots. It seems to help her a lot.
