Gunky ear help please

Hi people, my small friend is 10 months now and has started to get a gunky ear but only on one side. I clean it out at least once a week but it never seems to stay clean for long! Any advice on how to prevent this would be gladly accepted

Have you seen a vet? The ear could be infected and need medication to clear up

Sounds like a little infection, most probably cleared up with some antibiotics. Until then, keep it clean with cotton wool and warm water.

Keep us posted!

Hi,we did see the vet when i first noticed it but she said it seemed fine, although i had cleaned it at that point, maybe time to pay them another visit, should i dry her ear after cleaning?

Yes its a good idea a good idea to clean the ear with vinegar and warm watef if the ear smells you need to seek vet advice as above for antibiotics

Don't worry about drying the ear, just keep it clean.

Thanks everyone for the advice, I think i'll take beau to the vet for another check just to be sure

hope he is better soon
