Hi Petentials pets,
I am the Pet Groomer American Bull Dog. I go with my mom in her Precious Pets Spa Truck everywhere and meet a lot of friends.
Attention all you flop eared bowzers out there in ciber land!
It is summer time and where you live it is probably HOT...Here in Florida it is HOT and HUMID...PERFECT weather for yeast, fungus and bacteria to grow...guess where? In those dark warm moist floppy ears of yours!
Make sure your owner sniffs the insides of your ears regularly. It feels good to you and if they smell an odor then chances are you could have a problem in there.
Your ears should be odor free and the skin should be smooth and white or pink (depending on your heritage.)
Also be sure if your folks bathe you at home, they use an ear wash afterwards in your ears to dry out any moisture that may get in while you were splashing around...Especially if you have a pool and you swim, USE THE EAR-WASH EVERY TIME!!!! Smelly ear infections HURT and can be prevented with routine maientence.
Happy summer grooming!
BB Hartley
