Ear cleaning,any advice?

Post by Rio »

I was wondering what you guys and gals all used to clean your Chows ears with, there are so many different cleaners on the market and conflicting advice on whether to clean ears yourself. Do any of you have any tips that you can throw my way please =D= I know not to insert anything deep into the ear canal as this can cause serious problems.

I suggest you take your baby to a vet or grooming center. I'm having the same dillema but was advised that I should let the experts handle it since ears are sensitive :)

get a wet tissue and rubbed the outer ear as well as the ear flap. Use your fingers to reach inside. You dont want to remove the cerumen as it acts as a barrier against ear infections
