dogs ears

Posted by: dabanks <dabanks@...>

Does anyone know of a good natural approach to getting rid of yeast infection in dogs ears? My Dalmatian has chronic ear infections (yeast) and am getting tired of taking her to the vet to only have it come back time and time again. My mother is also dealing with this with her Basset Hound. We have found a few remedies but want real life advice from people who have tried it. I know that there is an underlying cause for it most suspectedly allergies, and have been working with the vets for years (she is 8) on this. She has had every good quality type food imaginable and always gets the infection anyways. I have recently read that their immunizations can actually cause this problem for life. Anyways, will rubbing yogurt in the ears help?? Any other suggestions?We do keep her ears clean on a regular basis so accumulated dirt is not the problem. We have experimented with different cleaners to to see if that is the problem and so far no luck. She has been on IAMS chicken and Rice for a couple years now, we tried all the others (duck and corn, beef, and she was on lamb and rice for a few years at the beginning of her life). Thanks for any information you can give me! 🙂 Julie
