I swear I live at the vets.....every day we have something going on but most importantly is this ear infection that has been ongoing for atleast a month and a half and does not get better.
This is the 3rd visit, we have changed medications once and I also changed his food thinking thats why it wasn't going away. Went grain free, potato free and chicken free. Now feeding him California Natural, Kangaroo and Lentils.
My poor guy wakes up in the middle of the night scratching and shaking his head. I give him benedryl if he wakes up during the night and put hydrocordison on his scratches.
I think it's time for an allergy test and the vet really needs to spend more then a moment and check to see if it's yeast, bacteria, maybe even mites (although Otis is on a antibiotic for that right now, day 19 out of 30)
Any ideas or questions I should be asking my vet?
Thanks everyone.
