Especially Teddy with big ears, the drooping ear shell and long hair near the ear canal often cover the ear canal, so it is easy to accumulate dirt, dampness and infection and inflammation due to poor air circulation in the ear canal. In addition, the unclean ear canal can easily become a hotbed of ear mites and molds.

1. Wash your ears. The first step must be to have a daily check-up. First, check the auricle and external auditory canal for signs of redness or secretion of black and red foreign bodies. If you have it, you should seek treatment from a veterinarian.
2. Wipe. Wipe the dog's eardrum and ear canal with cotton, and wipe off the earwax that is easier to clean.
3. Drop ear wash water. Hold the dog's head so that it can't move, and then drop the ear wash water into the ear canal. The instructions say that each ear needs eight to ten drops at a time, but a few drops are enough for general household cleaning. Nowadays, most of the ear washing water bottles on the market can be used only by rotating the bottle mouth without opening the lid, and the flow rate can be adjusted.
4. Press and knead. Gently press and knead your hand near the eardrum to help the ear lotion give full play to its descaling effect. At this time, you can usually hear a slight underwater sound in the ear canal.
5. Evacuate. After about two or three minutes, the cleaning was finished, and it was time to retreat. When the owner lets go of the dog, he should immediately back away for three or four meters, so as to prevent him from throwing his ear water all over you.
6. Aftermath. Now, a little more advanced ear wash will evaporate on its own. However, to be on the safe side, it is still necessary to clean the ear canal with cotton to ensure that there is no residual moisture in it.
