This could be ear mites, very contageous in dogs, i would recomend a checkup from a vet, if its just skin problems LIVERINE ointment is very good.

I dont think its ear mites, no brown discharge or smells and the canal looks quite clean and not inflammed, its the skin on the inner ear thats itchy. Where can I get Liverine ointment please.

Has anyone tried herbal ear drops for other conditions???

if it's not a parasite you could try aloe vera gel - or I use savlon on Brude sometimes if it's in a place he can't lick

Worth a shot, they have been fine this morning and then hes gone and scratched at one again and its all red and sore again.
If no better it will have to be a trip to the dreaded vet with the hanabal lecter muzzle on!

Liverine ointment isnt easy to get hold of, i think my last tin came from Donald cooks feed merchants rotherham, you could try the net, it comes in a tin the size of a shoe polish tin with a pale blue lid, its very good for skin complaints,ive used it for years.

I used OTODEX ear drops for Amber when she had sore ears, it sorted them out straight away.
