Under normal circumstances, the dog’s ear canal should be cleaned every 2 weeks, and if the dog suffers from ear disease, the ear canal should be cleaned once every 3 days.

For in-depth cleaning, you can wrap a small ball of medical absorbent cotton around the hemostatic forceps, drop some ear cleaning solution or paraffin oil on it, and insert it into the ear canal to clean. You should concentrate during the operation. Once the dog's head swings, Quickly withdraw the hemostat.
