Get an air compressor and set at about 180 psi and put one of those cleaning adapters on the hose and just blow all the junk out of her ear.

Coal burnin stove, no natural gas.....And if that aint country, Ill kiss yer..............

lol!

Clean their ears out good like they stated above and then once dried put some nu-stoc in them. It could also be ear mites.

Similisan. It's an over the counter ear medicine. It seems to numb the inner ear. Then go ahead and clean em out with q-tips.

my dogs get the ear infections ocasionaly and I first use the ear cleaning solution found almost at any pet shop but the best source I've found so far is tractor supply. once the majority of the waxy gunk is cleaned out I use betadine solution and perxide 50/50 to disinfect, then antibiotic ear drops clear it up in less than a week. imo it's ear mites and you can get some dogs ear mite killer drops for about 10$ at tractor supply. I've found if you clean their ears once a month and use the ear mite killer each month they stay clean. the quicker you nip it in the bud the better. signs/symptoms are scrathing, head shaking or walking around with their head cocked to one side.my female is high maintenance with 2- torn cruciate ligaments, frequent ear infections and anal glands that need to be expressed about every month ( don't ask/ no jokes please). good luck keeping our little freinds happy and healthy.
