Having popped in to Claro Hill Vets a couple of weeks ago with Fred who’s had a bit of an unsettled digestive system, and a check over of his ears whilst he was there, it was another visit with Bob today, who’s been bothering one of his ears.
Despite cleaning his ears, he’s still been indicating some annoyance by scratching and occasional head shaking.
A swab checked under the microscope showed yeast and bacteria.
The benefit of this means you know exactly what your dealing with so the right course of treatment can be prescribed.
So a good clean later and a single Neptra treatment which means no further drops or cleaning for the next month, and Bob is happily now snoozing by the fire and not scratching his ear!
Thank you to Heather for making him comfortable again.
Personally I always prefer to err on the side of caution and check out the small things, before they become big things!
