Dear Dr. Alice,
My dog is rubbing her head on the rug and her bed and really everything. I tried to look in her ear and couldn’t see anything. What is going on? Sincerely, Ears
Dear Ears,
Unfortunately ear issues are very prevalent with all animals. Sometimes, they are easy to cure but often they (ear infections) don’t ever go away but are just constantly being treated to keep the infections under control. There are many different ear medications on the market and they are constantly improving. But, get your pooch into your vet for an ear exam. And give her some ear rubs for comfort.
