How to clean the ears of a Plott Hound? Dogs' ears need regular care. If you don't pay attention to care, you are prone to ear mites and other problems. The following editor will bring you tips on cleaning the ears of a Plott Hound.

Plott Hound Ear Cleaning Tips:

1. The ear canal is relatively clean. If your Plott Hound's earwax isn't too severe, cleaning it won't be difficult. You can first use your hands to push aside the hair around the Plott Hound's ears, then pull up the auricle, dip some glycerin into a cotton swab, apply it on the Plott Hound's external auditory canal, and then gently massage the Plott Hound's entire ear with your hands. Disperse the oil that has entered the Plott Hound's ears, and finally use a cotton swab to insert into the ear canal and wipe it clean.

2. Excessive and hard earwax. If the Plott Hound's earwax is not only excessive, but also condensed into hard lumps that are difficult to clean, then disinfect the entire auricle with alcohol first, then go to the pet hospital to buy special pet ear drops, drop them on the earwax lumps, and wait for the earwax to soften. Afterwards, just use tweezers to gently take out the earwax. However, parents should be careful not to insert the tweezers too deep, because the dog’s ears are very delicate, so be careful when cleaning them. That’s why parents need to pay attention. And if you see the Plott Hound struggling a little, you should take out the tweezers quickly to avoid puncturing the Plott Hound's eardrum.

3. There is inflammation in the ears. If the Plott Hound's ears are still inflamed, it is best to go to the pet hospital to buy special anti-inflammatory ear drops and use them according to the doctor's instructions, including the dosage and usage instructions. Parents first pull up the Plott Hound's ears, then drip ear drops into the ears, and then gently massage them with their hands to promote the absorption of the medicine.
