Dog ear infection treatment: when to see a vet
If your dog is shaking their head; scratching their ears; or has red, swollen, or smelly ears, they may have an ear infection.
Avoid using over-the-counter products or home remedies without seeing a veterinarian. There are different types of ear infections, and treating the wrong cause can make the problem worse.
