Giving Ear Medication

Applying ear medication is another one of those challenges of dog health care. It is important to do it properly for your pet's health.

Clean the external ear thoroughly with a moistened cotton ball (water or veterinary-recommended solution).

Gently pull the ear flap over the head and drop the medication into the lowest opening of the ear canal.

Gently massage the ear area to help work the medication deeper into the ear canal. If there is enough medication in the ear, you will just begin to hear a 'squishing' noise as you massage.
