well, I got Chico in to see the DR today(SAT) instead of Monday WOOT! and also Kody....

I finally got a culture done on both doggies and VET said Chico has very bad ear infection and Kody is just starting..... well, I already knew this but was glad to finally get a culture...

I have ear wash, twice day.... after 15-20 mins I then have to put some cream in their ears...... for 2 weeks... Since Chico's is bad she wants to see him back in a week if I do not see improvement. She said Kody's has been caught early enough she thinks it will be cleared up in a week...

both doggies are tired and exhausted from the morning experience...

its Chicos' birthday today (4) and the poor little guy had to go thru ear cleansing this morning.... Being such a young guy, Chico sure has had his share of problems..... I *thought* he came from a good stable breeder but when I bought Kody, his breeder told me that she(chico's) no longer breeds because of genetic issues......... WHAT!!! I give $1200 for Chico thinking he was from good lines-he has champions in his background!!! I still love him to pieces though..... he is the best Chi I have ever had.....

hope this medicine helps both of them.......Chico has been pretty miserable lately...

Poor guys, glad you got a definite answer though. Happy Birthday to Chico!

That's really disappointing about the breeder. Glad you found some answers for the ear issues though! That's great that you caught Kody's early so you won't have to deal with the same thing all over again. Get well soon, little buddies!

Hope both of them get well fast. My son's dog had an infection in his ear like that, it is really hard to get rid of.

Aw, poor babies!! I hope she gave either some good ear drops with pain relief or something for the pain. Can't imagine how much pain he's been in. Glad you've finally got a handle on it & I bet those ear washes feel relieving to him.

Sorry about the breeder issue. Sometimes the most expensive things aren't the best things in life. Give Chico plenty of hugs for me.

Chico is not shaking his head as much. He is resting better too.... while applying the medicine in his ear last night I noticed his right eye not looking 'right'....... on closer inspection I found half of the eyelashes gone...... poor little doggie was rubbing/scratching his head so much he rubbed the eyelashes off...... I feel SO bad now
