I posted I think Sat. that I thought Vegas had another ear infection, I started him on his Otomax Friday night and have used it all weekend, but he was still digging his ear and yelping, so I took off work today to take him to the vet I thought he needed oral antibiotics well......POOR BOY, had a SEVERE ear infection with yeast, Doc showed me with his scope and I could see fresh red blood down deep and this is 3 days on his Otomax!!

He got a good flushing, cleaning, antibiotic ear drops, antibiotic shot, and oral antibiotics PLUS and extra shot of antibiotics for me to bring home and add to his Otomax!! :eek: Poor Vegas, and if that was not enough he has been doing the booty scoot across my carpet so he had his anal glands done internally not once, but twice because they were so full. I felt so bad for him I about cried at the vet's! Doc did put a watery type liquid down his ear and said that it would numb it real good for him.

Needless to say he is passed out after coming home and taking a huge :poo:!! I am so glad I listened to my gut and started him Friday on his ear drops and took off work today because I felt he needed to be seen!! He is going to get extra lovens from me tonight. Oh, and extra yogurt because of all the antibiotics in his system.

Oh, gosh :(. Poor Vegas! He is probably out because he can't feel the pain in his ear anymore! Wish I was there to hug him. Give him kisses from us.

I know [MENTION=2092]JAKEISGREAT[/MENTION], as bad as his ear was, he still wanted to annoy me with his blankie and take me for a magic carpet ride!! I just love his guts out!! I am looking at him all passed out right now and knowing he is in good care. That makes me proud. I seen a poor dog at the vet that was there to be put to sleep (I ask what was wrong) and it actually brought tears to my eyes. The dog was very old and feble it just broke my heart.

Now he is bugging the crapola out of me because he can't go on a walk for a few days...I can't go anywhere near his harness or leash and he comes flying!!! Not on a bunkie tho!!! Give Vegas a big :love:

:bully: Poor Vegas. Other than using antibiotics all the time is there any way to prevent this cronic flare up? When you get your own house is there some kind of climate control heating/cooling system that would remove moisture from the air inside? I feel bad for Vegas and you having to deal with ear infections so much.

one of our bullies ear infections regularly. we monitor his ears closely when the seasons change...summer to fall and spring are his worst. most of the time their ears are cool when they wake up but when he is getting an ear infection it will become hot. we immediately do the ear wash and then orthomax or whatever it's called. his ears flap tight they don't stick up at all...jamesons ears stick up a little and he doesn't get infections.
