Need advice on my puppy

#1 (**permalink**) 03-25-2009

I have a 5 1/2 month puppy that has a red swollen inside her ear my other dogs keep licking it and she shakes her head allot what could this be.

Could be a yeast infection. If it smells bad, that's a good possibility. Also, it may be earmites. My mom's dog has had both.

Thank you for your response. Do I need to take her to the Vet or is there something I can do at home?

I'm not sure. Google earmites and yeast infections and you should be able to get some info...if all else fails just call your vet.

I agree with them probably some kind of infection.
Go see your vet, might give you some treatment for your dog

my dog had a similar problem 3 years back. I had taken im to vet who advised ear drops for such infections. I must say that the drops really helped and my dog recovered completely in a couple of days. I think this occurs due to water going inside the ear.
