Had to take Lola to the vet this morning. The past few days she's been scratching her ears like crazy. When I tried to clean them she'd freak out more than usual and I noticed a few cuts inside them. Last night she scratched so bad that she drew blood! I called this morning and got her in. They said that she has a yeast infection in both ears again, she had it about 2 months ago. The vet said that this could become an issue that occurs a lot and that she may have allergies also. Just wondering if this is a common thing for boxers? Anyone else have chronic ear infections? They gave us medication drops and told us to clean her ears twice a week. They also said we can use benadryl for the allergies....anyone know how much to give? They never said.
I feel so bad, she looked so miserable today. Poor thing! Besides that she's healthy and weighing in at 33 pounds! Getting big!
Thanks!
