Vet's Best Dog Ear Relief Wash, Natural Ear Cleaner for Dogs with Aloe, Chamomile & Tea Tree Oil, Itch, Odor & Irritation Relief, Gentle Cleaning Solution, Vet Formulated, Made in USA, 4 fl oz

One ear infection on my youngest English Mastiff resulted in hot spots on his cheek. I didn't realize it was due to an ear infection, but when it spread down his neck overnight we went straight to the vet. We were to take him home and shave his face before using the topical prescriptions. My 250lb husband tried to hold my 200 pound dog while I shaved his irritated face. That didn't work! We ended up having to take our baby back to have him sedated, shaved, and ears cleaned while they had him down. You could imagine that cost! (Although experiencing a drunken mastiff added some comedic value - if only he weren't feeling bad.) The vet advised we stop using a plastic water bowl (without me telling him we had a plastic bowl) and be sure to wash his ears weekly. I've been using this ever since and no more ear issues! I chose it because I'm familiar with the properties of the ingredients in the wash. I clean their ears weekly and let them dry on their own overnight. If the next day I can rub their ears and hear squish, I use the ear dry. I'm blessed that I found this first try! I highly recommend it, and a stainless water dish.

This is the best ear cleaner. Drys and cleans, fresh scent and doesn’t burn. I have used it for my dogs for years.

Gentle but effective dog ear maintenance

Vet’s Best Ear Relief Wash works well but the replacement bottle did not have a spill proof sticker on the outside of the cap so it came undone and some product spilled out into the box ruining one corner of the box. Instead of sending back i’ll just use it. Please make sure to add an anti-spill sticker on the outside.

This is the best ear wash I've ever used (and I've used a lot....). I have a 10 year old lab who used to be prone to ear infections (like a lot of labs are - those floppy ears don't get a lot of air flow), we fought them from the time he was a pup. I discovered this stuff at my workplace (I work at a doggie daycare/boarding facility) - it's the stuff my boss had bought for us to use in our groom room (we don't do full grooming, but we have the necessities just in case). I was first amazed at how good this stuff smelled - and then I used it on a few nasty eared labs and basset hounds and I couldn't believe how well it worked! I had to get myself some for my lab and my Rottie mix. I began by cleaning out my lab's ears a couple times a week (about what we normally did to keep them from getting too infected), and then I only needed to do so once a week, and now I only clean them when they get baths (once a month) unless I notice him scratching or digging at his ears (which is extremely rare). This has been the only thing to keep his ears clean (and that's including prescribed cleaners from the vet). I even sold my aunt on it for her Chessies who are prone to dirty ears as well and she's seen a difference, too. She bought it after they had changed their label - but it's the same stuff. If you have a dog that gets ear infections or dirty ears easily, buy this stuff - you won't be disappointed. Use it weekly at first and then you'll probably be able to wean it down to bi-monthly or even monthly use. I don't know what it is, but when it cleans them it helps prevent future build-up - and I love it (no more stinky, gunky ears) and my lab loves it, too (no digging, irritation, or itching)! We've since bought others cleaners to use at work, but I always go for this stuff first. And a bottle this size lasts - I bought my first bottle in October 2009 and still have at least a quarter of a bottle left - and that's using it on 2 dogs at least once a month.

This stuff works great! Parked with the dry solution its perfect for my dogs waxey ears

I got this cleaner to prevent any ear infections on my black lab. She loves to swim, so every time she goes swimming (at least twice a week in the summer) she gets a good rinse and then I clean her ears. I only skirt some of the liquid to those flat cotton pads and make sure everything I can reach is clean (never use q-tips). It's been working so far. Is not irritating at all and her ears don't seen to get dirty much. The only bad thing is the smell, yes, it stinks. That's the only reason it doesn't have more stars. Also I haven't treated and existing ear infection so I don't know how good this product is with that. The key for floppy ears is prevention! The price was great, so I would recommend it, but beware of the smell. PS: Yes, it comes like a shampoo bottle and not with the tip

My dog really likes this one. I fill it in a mini squeeze bottle where the drops come out at the top and this way he gets not too much too fast because he really prefers his daily ear drops over a less frequent ear wash and he has not had an infection for a long time. I guess an ounce of prevention is better than a pound of cure. When I announce its time for ear drops, he is willing and ready, they must feel good to him. I have one more brand I also like but this one I think is his number one favorite and I like that it does not stain. I do not need the dry ear relief version for some reason, this alone does it as long as I give him a couple drops every night in each ear and massage his ears a bit, and he shakes them, he has long ears, mini poodle and used to get ear infection when I first adopted him some years back. As soon as I started the ear wash drops things immediately improved, it did not matter as much which brand I used as long as I do it daily.However there are some differences in the products like one stained his ears a bit, he is cream-colored so stains show easily and this one does not stain. Also the ingredients are agreeable as I had one that was supposed to be really good I think Zymox Ear Cleanser and he did not like it as much it is still good just not as liked by him so I got another one of this again to make him happy. Could be individually different from dog to dog but I think this is a good one for sure and the price was right. When I read the ingredients I liked them too, lots of natural ones. His ears smell good in a gentle way. We are both happy with this product.

Used it a couple of times already and so far I’m loving it. It’s very easy to use. Just add a few drops to your pet’s ear, place a cotton pad over the ear hole and massage the lower ear so the liquid can work on the whole inner ear. From there you can just use a cotton pad to wipe everything out.

Se siente un olor fuerte pero parece que si funcionó para una de mis perras, llegó bien empacado y a tiempo, buen producto.

My dog has an ear infection/brown discharge that smells funky, but after cleaning his ears with this, I’m seeing less of the brown discharge and the scent of the ear cleaner is overpowering the funky smell. He still scratches his ear from time to time but not as frequent as before.

El producto llegó poco antes de la fecha estimada. El producto cumple con su función sin provocar molestía en mi perro.

Funciono bien para mí perro
