TAKING ORDERS FOR EAR CLEANER!
🐶👂🐶👂🐶👂🐶👂🐶👂🐶👂

Sick of paying high dollar at the vets office for stuff that doesn't work?
Did you know that back in 2012 we concocted an ear cleaner and antiseptic for dogs?
As some of you know, we had a "cocky" spaniel named Fenway back then, and she was always getting ear infections. Those floppy ears are cute, but boy can they be a pain, for both our dogs and for us. I tried all the home remedies, paid hundreds of dollars at the vet and nothing helped. I was on a mission. So, I did a lil research, tried a few concoctions and low and behold found the perfect mix!
Since 2012 we have helped numerous dog parents maintain good ear health in their dogs. Some even call it "Ear Magic". Some breeders give a bottle to their puppies new families to ensure they have the tools they need to maintain ear health. We've even helped a dog recently start to hear better, because the ointment from the vet didn't get down deep enough into the canal. Our solution is a liquid, that is alcohol based, so it gets down in there & it dries on its own, the lavender essential oil leaves your pups ears smelling and feeling great, and lavender also helps your pups relax. Win win!

Keeping your dog's ears clean is very important! Regular cleaning helps prevent stinky infections and discomfort. Plus, it's a great way to bond with your dog. Most pups see their owners take out the bottle, and they get excited. 🤣👍 Fenway used to. Opal does! The picture below is her waiting patiently for me to start the other day. 🥰👍 Any who....

It's generally recommended to clean your dog's ears once every 1-2 weeks. However, that depends on your dog's breed, activity level, and individual needs. Regularly monitoring your dog's ears and cleaning them when necessary is key.
There are several common causes of ear infections in dogs. Some of them include:
1. Ear mites: These tiny parasites can cause irritation and inflammation in the ear canal.
2. Allergies: Dogs can be allergic to certain foods, environmental factors, or even flea bites, which can lead to ear infections.
3. Moisture or excessive wax buildup: Excess moisture or wax in the ear can create a breeding ground for bacteria or yeast.
4. Foreign objects: Objects like grass seeds or foxtails can get lodged in the ear, leading to infection.
5. Anatomy: Dogs with floppy ears or narrowed ear canals may be more prone to ear infections due to poor air circulation.
Some signs of an ear infection in dogs include:
1. Scratching or rubbing the ears more than usual
2. Shaking or tilting the head to one side
3. Redness, swelling, or discharge in the ear canal
4. Unpleasant odor coming from the ears
5. Increased sensitivity or pain when the ears are touched
6. Changes in behavior, such as irritability or decreased appetite

Certain dog breeds are more prone to ear infections due to their anatomy. Dogs with floppy ears, such as Cocker Spaniels, Basset Hounds, and, Rottweilers, Retrievers, have a higher risk because their ears trap moisture and restrict airflow. Breeds with narrow ear canals, like Poodles and Shih Tzus, are also more susceptible. Regular ear cleaning and proper care are especially important for these breeds.

If you have a dog that could benefit from a great ear cleaner, that actually works... LOOK NO FURTHER!

A little goes a long way. $20 FOR a 2OZ BOTTLE.

IF YOU FIND A HYPOTHERMIC ANIMAL

1. DO NOT FEED
2. DO NOT SUBMERSE IN WATER

1. DO get out of the weather and inside
2. DO dry off
3. DO talk to
4. DO stroke to stimulate blood flow

GET TO A VET IMMEDIATELY!!!

If you feed a kitten with a temp below 97 you can KILL it!
If you warm them up to fast you can KILL it!
If the animal is frozen to the ground DO NOT PULL IT OFF!

Get LUKE WARM tap water and pour it around and under the animal. that water is warmer than the snow and air and is going to feel like FIRE to that animal's nerve endings. Think about stepping into a hot tub and how hot it feels. Again you DO NOT want to use hot water. Then Immediately dry the animal off, wrap it in a towel, shirt etc. and get to the nearest vet office.

Steady and slow is rule of thumb. A vet can treat the animal for shock and hypothermia using a series of injections and warm IV fluids and an incubator.

Losing ears, tails, toes or a leg is workable. Damaging internal organs isn't.

01/15/2022

We are busy making Paw Wax today. Who needs some? It's good for dry cracked noses too!

01/11/2022

Never knew they could have dog food? Hmmm

06/30/2021

Who needs Doggie Ice Cream Treats? We will be whipping some up in the next few days. If you want a certain flavor let us know. I am thinking Strawberry Blast, Peanut Butter & Doglate chips, and Blueberry coconut will be the flavors this time. Possibly pumpkin.

Suggestions welcome.
