Hi, I noticed this morning that my 10 week old puppy is occasionally scratching behind her ear on her neck, does any one know what this could be, I think I'm going to give her the advocate treatment

Have you checked her ears and for fleas? Also could be her collar?

She hasn't got a collar yet, I will check for fleas but I haven't taken her out yet, only in my garden, she has had her first vaccination last Tuesday

Do the inside of her ears look ok? Could be an ear infection

Frontline isn't that great in all honesty, I use advocate, or advantage,
