    Hello. I need some advice. Rocky, my rescue, has started getting really mucky ears over the last couple of weeks. Normally, I only need to clean them over 2-3 weeks, but lately, with the warm, muggy weather, I have had to clean them 3-4 times a week.

    Is it normal for dogs ears to get mucky during the warm months or could it be ear mites?

    Thanks guys x

    Straight to the vet, it is almost certainly ear mites or some kind of yeast infection.

    Totally agree,book a vet appointment .It could be ear mites,it could be a yeast infection,we've had both and it's easy to clear if you get the right medication and routine to clear them.I got unsatisfactory treatment from a vet late last year and we got into an awful mess ......it's something you need to get right.
    We live in a hot humid climate and have been told yeast infections are common x
