  1. I put canesten cream in my dogs ears, while we were away for 10 days and she swam in some tidal-mud skankiness. I took her to our vet when we got home and did the medicated eat-washes and whatnot…but my dog has been hard of he’s since the incident…and her recall isn’t what it used to be. I’m afraid the canesten has clogged her ears, but the vet has said she can’t see anything, so a surgical washout under anaesthetic is the next level of treatment.

    I’m a bit nervous of surgery (my dog has had a few for cut paws, and a root canal…and anal gland removal …plus sedation for follow up chemo. My dog is 12, but still swims and hikes, and is fit and healthy, having had human home cooked non inflammatory foods since puppyhood (plus nightly toothbrushing) I don’t want to put her through surgery, if it’s not necessary. I tried warm olive oil in her ears (but it may not have been warm enough) and I tried having à wrapped hot water bottle under her ear…to soften/‘melt’ the possible canesten/wax blockage. She doesn’t like heat, so she wouldn’t keep it there for very long. Any suggestions? How do I heat the oil to a suitable temperature for her ears? She a 27 kg dog Wheaten Terrier X Golden Retriever mix.

  2. I always worry about using green tea.
    Green tea has caffeine, which can be fatal to dogs.
    So if you use any green tea remedy topical or even in the ear, and your dog licking it or pawing at his ears then licking their paw, isn't there a risk of heart palpation or even death?
    Or is the amount of caffeine so low that it isn't a concern?
