Hi all  
My vet has done several things to my dockers ear however none worked. He had his ears packed and been prescribe momentamax like 5 fifteenth times and gave me 2 prescriptions for an antibiotics that is really expensive like 60 dollars for 14 pills. He prescribe them twice. Works great while he is taking them and about 3 days after he is thrum with the mess the smell comes back. I don’t think they are giving me enough to kill all the bacteria and it comes back. I’m tired of it. They also suggested a 2000 dollar surgery to remove his ear canal which will leave him deaf in his left ear. So I wanted to try something different like diluted bleach with water. I made my own ear flush from alcohol and vinegar. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
