Cleaning your dogs ears. Like Odie!

It is important to keep your dogs ears clean.  This video shows you how to do that.

Some things to bare in mind:

1.  Use ear cleaning solution, such as "Espree Natural Ear Care for Dogs".

2.  Don't let water or debris sit in your dogs ears, it will cause infection.

3.  If there is an offensive odor in the ear canal, or any discharge, you may want to consult a vet.

4.  Some breeds of dogs need their ears cleaned more often then others, especially if their ears flop down like a Cocker Spaniel, Pug, or Shih Tzu.

How to Brush your dogs ears

One thing we see a lot is people neglecting to brush out their pets ears.  Here is a grooming video we made to help.

Things to remember:

1. Use the right equipment, use a slicker brush first, and a comb last to find any mats or tangles you might have missed.

2. Don't brush too hard or too long.  The ears are very sensitive, you can easily irritate the skin, and cause cuts.

3. Don't leave mats in your dogs ears.  It is painful, and it can cause them to get ear hematoma, a very serious and painful condition.

4. Don't use scissors to cut out mats.  You can easily cut your dogs ears with scissors, especially if you pull at a mat.

Flower Accessories


Jackie recently began making these beautiful flowers to put on dogs collars.  They are a good alternative to bows and bandanas, especially for short haired dogs.



They can be made by taking apart any artificial flower you can find at the store.  They are held together by stringed beads in the front, and they are attached to a small rubber-band on the back that attaches to the collar.
