Precautions for pricking the dog’s ears: tie a bandage

One week after the dog’s surgery, and until the wound heals, a hard sponge column can be placed in the dog’s ear canal to fix the ears. Make the entire ear stand upright, and then wrap tape or gauze around the auricle. This is so that the dog's ears can stand up. To prevent infection or damage to your dog's skin, disinfect the entire auricle before bandaging. The binding of both ears should be removed regularly, otherwise long-term binding may easily lead to ear congestion, ulceration, etc.
