In life, we sometimes see dogs cleaning their ears with their feet, or often shaking their heads. If the owner approaches the dog, he smells a stinking smell and sees brown secretions in his ears. This is the dog has ear mites. At this time, the dog is very itchy and uncomfortable, and the owner needs to take measures to help the dog.
1, dog ear mites, after a dog has ear mites, there are a lot of ear oil, ear mites and other dirt in its ears, which are brown and the dog is itchy, so it often scratches its ears, cleans its ears, and shakes its head constantly. It wants to throw things out. Some may also have red rash-like nodules, and the outside of the ears will fall out and swollen.
If the owner looks through the dog's ears, he will see a lot of black earwax. If he uses a lamp to shine, he can see many small flesh-colored bugs crawling. You will also smell a sour smell. At this time, the owner should help the dog deal with it in time.
2, pay attention to isolation
If you find that the dog has the above symptoms and there are other cats and dogs at home, you should isolate it as soon as possible because ear mites are contagious. If all the cats and dogs at home have ear mites, it will be more serious.
Owners can keep dogs with ear mites in a cage, and do not let other cats and dogs come into contact with them. Food basins, water basins and other daily necessities should also be used separately. The owners should clean the home more often, especially dogs' daily necessities, and should be cleaned frequently and exposed to the sun. And clean more places where the dog lives.
3, clean the ears
Next, the owner should help the dog deal with the ear mites. The easiest and most direct way to deal with ear problems is to use ear sanitizer, but it is not recommended to use human ear sanitizer because it is not targeted. The owner can use special ear washing liquid for the dog. You can pour some ear wash on a cotton swab to wipe the dog's external ear canal.
Do not dig deep into your ears to avoid hurting your dog. The owner can directly drop some ear washing liquid into the dog's ears, then rub it for half a minute before letting it go. The dog will shake its head and throw out the dirt, and the owner will wipe the dirt clean. Remember to use it.
