Does bad ear cleaning hurt a lot have of times dogs can have ear infections or wax or plugs in the ears just like people. If the ears are dirty or infect they need to be properly cleaned and medication if there is an infection. Occasionally however and it is fairly common as dogs age just like in humans those little bones in the air can calcify and they are hard of hearing and it is just a degenerative process with age mr. Can you feed them Something Different or do something is there any preventive thing to keep these bones in their ear healthy. Main thing is good clean make sure ears are cleaning if your dog or cat is a wax producer there are products you can flush ears out. How do you know if your dog or cat is one. Is. Produces wax in the ear do you see it. You can see it, smell it. There will be an odor.

Heres a boston terrier enamel i who fell off the bed and was stiff, sore, aggressive, different changes. It turns out it was i brain tumor. I got background than that one. You would think it is a seizure or epilepsy when a dog has Something Like that but this shows you what medicine is today in the veterinary field where years ago it probably this dog would have had a rough time of it. This person had the for sight to go to the Specialty Center, had an mri done where they could see the tumor, hat surgery, radiation, doggies doing great and shows you what you can do. When a dog has a seizure, which looks like what, briefly, how do you know and only through mri would you know it was epilepsy or brain tumor. Sometimes you can do blood work because there are imbalances that cause seizures but they can take different views. Dog can fall over and paddle like riding a bike, stiff, ridged, limp, sometimes dip to tell. I tell people not everybody has a cell phone. Take a video fur dog has an event like that so the vet can see it. It will help make a diagnosis. And then go to the Specialty Center do mris, et cetera, et cetera and followup. If it gets to that point yes. And bring your checkbook. Unfortunately, yes good fluff, sweetheart. I love you. I love petting you. We will see you next time, thanks doctor geffen. Youre welcome.
