How to clean the ears of a golden haired puppy

When we see the furry and drooping big ears of the golden haired puppy, our hearts are filled with love. But these cute ears also hide secrets that require our careful care. The ear structure of golden haired puppies is special, with an L-shaped ear canal that is relatively deep and long, which makes it easy for dirt and earwax to accumulate. Cleaning the ears of a golden haired puppy has become an important task for us to care for its health. Every time we carefully clean its ears, it is filled with our deep love for it, hoping to create a refreshing and healthy ear environment for it.

Regularly cleaning the ears of a golden haired puppy is crucial. The accumulation of earwax is a common problem. Over time, earwax will gradually accumulate in the ear canal, and if not cleaned in time, it will become harder and more abundant. Excessive earwax not only affects the hearing of golden haired puppies, making their perception of sound dull, but may also breed bacteria and fungi. These microorganisms multiply in large numbers in warm and humid ear canal environments, causing ear infections and leading to inflammation, redness, and even pain in the ears of golden haired puppies. If left untreated, ear infections may spread to the inner ear, causing more serious problems and affecting the balance and overall health of golden haired puppies. So, for the hearing health and quality of life of golden haired puppies, it is urgent to regularly clean their ears.

Before cleaning the ears of a golden haired puppy, we need to make sufficient preparations. Firstly, prepare suitable cleaning tools. Pet specific ear wash is essential. Ear wash can gently dissolve earwax, clean the ear canal, and also have certain bactericidal and anti-inflammatory effects. When choosing ear wash, pay attention to the ingredients to ensure that it is gentle and non irritating, suitable for the delicate ears of puppies. Also prepare cotton balls or soft gauze. The cotton ball has a soft texture and can gently wipe around the ear canal to avoid scratching the puppy's ears. The gauze should also be soft and odorless, and used for gentle wiping.

When everything is ready, you can start cleaning the ears of the golden haired puppy. Gently hold the golden haired puppy in your arms and keep it in a comfortable and quiet position. You can sit on a chair, place the puppy on your lap, and gently secure its head with one hand to prevent it from moving around. Then, pick up the ear wash and aim the nozzle of the ear wash at the entrance of the puppy's ear canal. According to the product instructions, drip an appropriate amount of ear wash. Generally speaking, 3-5 drops per ear are sufficient. After dripping in ear wash, do not wipe immediately, but gently massage the base of the puppy's ear with your fingers, which is the connection between the ear and the head. The massage intensity should be moderate, so that you can feel the ear wash flowing in the ear canal. Massage for 1-2 minutes, which can help the ear wash dissolve earwax better and loosen it. During the massage process, you may hear a "sizzling" sound coming from the ear canal, which is the effect of the ear wash. Don't worry.

After the massage, release the hand that holds the puppy's head in place and let it shake its head naturally. Golden haired puppies will shake their heads to release a portion of the dissolved earwax and ear wash from the ear canal. At this point, it is important to avoid the direction in which the puppy shakes its head to avoid being splashed by the liquid thrown out. After shaking your head, gently wipe the outer ear canal and entrance of the puppy's ear with a cotton ball or gauze. Starting from the edge of the ear, slowly wipe into the ear canal, but be careful not to penetrate deep into the ear canal to avoid damaging the ear canal and eardrum. Just gently wipe away visible dirt and liquid. During the wiping process, if the cotton ball or gauze becomes dirty, it should be replaced with a clean one in a timely manner. Throughout the entire cleaning process,

There may also be some issues when cleaning the ears of a golden haired puppy. For example, when black or brown discharge is found in the ears of a puppy, accompanied by an odor, it may be a sign of ear infection. At this point, it is not enough to rely solely on simple cleaning. It is necessary to take the puppy to the veterinarian in a timely manner for further examination and treatment. Veterinarians may perform smear tests on ear canal secretions to determine the pathogen of infection, and then prescribe corresponding medications such as antibiotics, antifungal drugs, etc.
