If you want to screen shot for future reference... Home Remedies for Dog's Head Shaking & Scratching (red & inflamed, yellow discharge or black debris, yeasty smell... usually inflammation caused by allergies) esp common in floppy-eared dogs: 1) For minor infections Witch Hazel with Aloe (anti-inflammatory, antifungal, antibacterial) can be used to swab out/clean ear, as an ear flush, or as drops by drawing ½ml into syringe (no needle) and place into ear canal, 5 drops= small dog/ 10= Lab size. Rub base of ear, will hear squishy sound as it works down into ear canal, 2Xdaily for 5-10 days. 2) For more established infections use ½cup green tea steeped 20min to cool/warm (natural anti-inflammatory/ antibacterial) & 2 Tablespoons Apple Cider Vinegar (antibacterial, anti-yeast) and use the same way as above. Can be stored in fridge, warm before using. 3) 1 teaspoon each of OTCs Clotrimazole/ Canesten (most common antifungal in Vet meds), 1% Hydrocortisone (corticosteroid/ anti-inflammatory), and Polysporin (antibacterial) mixed well. Put about ¼tsp into base of ear & rub 2Xdaily (as with above remedies) 5 days for yeast (black debris) & 10 days for bacterial infection (yellow, smelly discharge). Room temp stable, keep covered. Put cotton balls in ears when giving baths to keep dry, change out if they get soaked. If they get water in ears, you can use Swimmer's Ear drops to dry them out to help prevent problems. 👋🤠Dr. Jones; if you see this, please let us know if these are safe to use for cats. Thank you 😻👍

[@1967MOC]

I woke up last night at 11pm because of the sound of my dog shaking his head. He was shaking his head constantly non-stop. First time it happens to him. His left ear was red and hot, and the smell was kind of sweet. Immediately, I came to this channel....the only one I trust!!...I prepared the green tea with apple cider vinegar. I started to clean his ear, and I used 15 or more cotton swabs. First time I saw something like this. After I cleaned it, I applied the mix of green tea and ACV. Today, when I went to apply the second dose, I noticed cleaner, but still red. Now, I applied it for third time. I cleaned it first, and surprise...Nothing came out!!...Our dog has been all day without shaking his head. I said this is a miracle cure!!...I will do 5 days, and for the healthy ear, I will do it only 2 days. I think as a preventive measure, I will do the other ear because when they scratch, the infection can go from one ear to another.....Thanks and blessings to you!!

[@omtatsat2011]

@@sharieblossom yes. Could it be Pedigree kibble I wonder?

[@eliuminati]

@@omtatsat2011 yes unfortunately kibble like Pedigree and really all kibble can be the cause of yeast infections. But I understand your options are limited since you are in rural India. You can always try to supplement with fresh foods (meats, organs, raw meaty bones) you don't have to switch them completely to raw food but adding it as an additional food may help with their yeast infections (i am not a vet professional, I am only a dog guardian who is obsessed with dog nutrition)

Hi, I have a 5 year old cocker spaniel too. She’s been showing signs of ear infection for the last 2 days. Which remedy do you think worked the best for your baby? Wishing your doggie a speedy recovery. Thanks.

[@itsmytube62]

Note to someone who asked me -- it is NOT a syringe with needle, of COURSE! What he is using is like an eyedropper.

[@-touya_todoroki]

I think we need a new word for not needled syringes...

[@ch33sman]

It's a medicine dropper-save one from your child's Tylenol bottle, or just buy one. They are very cheap!

[@eprofessio]

The last recommendation with the over the counter stuff is gold. I put all the ingredients in a bag and mix them thoroughly then put it into syringes with 4ml-5ml each and it makes about 12 which is enough to treat for six days twice a day. It makes it so easy to just squirt it in. I don’t shove it down the canal I just get it in the ear and squish it around like he recommends.

[@missdedee3343]

Omg! You are truly a God send!!! My pit Bull had an ear infection with that yeast odor … I used the home remedy and after a week… she is finally sleeping through the night without shaking her head and there is no more odor or redness! Thank you so so much and Tru thanks you too❤❤❤🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

What a blessing it is to have found you and I’m speaking not only for myself but for my 2 sweet dogs but also for a dog I just rescued from the streets in my neighborhood and she was starving to death and left out in 110 degree heat for at least a week that I know of. It took several days to earn her trust just to accept food even though she was starving. She’s finally coming into a safe room where it’s cool but scratches at her ears. She won’t allow a collar to be put on so I’m just trying to feed her and maybe do something for her ears.

Thought I would put in my 2 cents- Have a female pittie that gets reoccurring ear infections. Seems every 6 months or so at vets being treated. Found this video & tried the 3 OTC meds. recipe, and it worked. No more smelly or black gunk when I clean ears. More than likely, she will get again, but at least now I have a way to treat without having to go to vets. Thanks! She is in a much better mood as well! Thanks again!

I am writing this as a note to apply this for Summer’s ear- we tried the Apple Cider Vinegar but it did not help, the earmites got more. So hoping this helps. In this economy can’t go to vet again. I went to Vet & they gave me Animax- a prescribed medicine- even that didn’t help with the earmites, I clean her ear everyday, it is only her left ear. Hoping this one does the trick!

Now I see black appearing in his ears so I think it's beginning to work! He can hear again, head shaking is slowing down, drooling nearly gone as well.

He was traumatised at being left at our place, people he didnt know, and he would not walk with us for anfew weeks without trying to run away. It took months before we could put him in the car. Thanks to Dr Andrew, we have been able to sort his allergies with canesten. I will get the rest on the list. This time, his infection seems to not want to go, itnhas only been 4 or 5 days now. Our town is very prone to allergies as we r surrounded by orchards. Here in South Africa the vet is pricy too, even with pet insurance.

All right, I will give you a before and after. I have a 95 pound yellow lab that has had a recurring yeast based ear infection or some kind of ear infection for roughly 6 months. I am going tomorrow to get the first two methods and then we’ll try the third if they work I will let you know. This is for the doctor and for anybody watching or reading. I’m to broke for vet bills and am tired of trying different things that don’t work.

[@JoseRodriguez-zz5dl]

Which method did you use and how did it go?

[@raquelcoler1]

tell us about it please

[@RoninDinneen]

I thank the universe for you. I so appreciate your intel

[@evantilley6192]

Just cost me 150$ CDN for a swab test and medication at the vet. I'm definitely going to try this. If it works it will save me so much money over time. My 110 lb berner always has ear infections.

[@DeeCee1878]

I just paid $85 to walk in to the vets office, an additional $40 for a microscopic slide (though we already knew it was yeast) and $25 for Animax, which doesn't help much. This was the second visit in 2 months, after paying $70 for a "one time treatment "administered by the vet, but she never told me I would have to come back every 2 weeks for it! Now, I will try the green tea and AC vinegar or the polysporin/hydrocortisone/chlortrimizol combo if I can find all the ingredients in my local pharmacy. Next step, research the cause of these yeast infections and change her diet! Thank you Doc!

[@m.turpel4818]

I am in Columbus, Ohio, US and I can't find the Polysporin brand that you mentioned contains polymyxin and gramicidin. The one that is available has other ingredients. Is there another recommendation for an over-the-counter antibiotic cream?

[@SuzieMar]

Thank you, I was just about to search for this kind of video for my dog Buttercup and I was so happy you had just made one. Will try the first remedy and come back with a update 🙂

[@tinamuller3189]

Thanks Dr. You are the best! My little dog seems to get these ear issues twice a year.This is most helpful.

[@Joeblackradioofficial]

[@angburrs9228]

Thank you Doctor what a God sent I've spent so much money on the vet with reoccurring ear infections and there simply not working.

[@yanifree114]

Dr Jones, you are God sent. Thank you.

[@vibuskaishere2]

[@IndraniGupta-l2u]

Hi Doctor .Could you please discuss Distemper and diseases from ticks please ❤

[@Mickey-f3t]

Going to try the third one and hopefully it works!

[@charlottedickson6384]

Thank you, great information 🇨🇦

[@carolinemurphy997]

THANK YOU. THANK YOU!!!!!The green tea and acv WORKED!!!! Thank you so much!!!!!! Rufus had a problematic ear infection 😭

[@Loveandpeaceandggoodwill]

Did you put a few drops in each ear? I'm just asking since I worry I'll put too much on my dog

[@carolinemurphy3087]

5-10drops. 2x per day 10 days

[@taracriste1]

I use an OTC antifungal like foot fungus cream and hydrocortisone on my dogs ears. It definitely helps but she usually goes back to the shaking after a day or two. I ordered the witch hazel with aloe thanks Dr. Jones

[@Sammaanam]

how the witch hazel worked for you?

[@andrewbrown6522]

Do you wash the old gunk and cream out between applications or days? Thank you very much for this. Dealing with a long term infection and vet made things worse by over-aggitating dogs ear and breaking skin. Havent been able to control it since.

[@andrewbrown6522]

Ive gone after the diet approach without effect. I tried both canestan and poly on their own. Vinegar & water (not cider vinegar though) worked before but not as well now. I keep dog off the cold floor and have limited cold weather exposure to reduce condensation in her ear as well. So frustrating.

[@LindaLupercio]

My dog suffers from environmental allergies and a has had many ear infections. A few weeks ago I took her to the vet she had bacteria in her ears. They put some type of cream on her ears which worked for a little while but now she’s scratching again and her ear looks it has inflammation. I will try some of these remedies see if that works for her. Thank you for all your videos!

[@cas3355]

How did it go. My pups experiencing the same thing.

[@LindaLupercio]

Didn’t work for my dog. Not sure because her infection was bad already but I had to take her to vet where they had to sedate her to flush out her ear and put her on Apoquel. She has been so much better after having that done.

[@gwynethho4105]

hello! do you have a link for the witch hazel used? Thank you so much!

[@dorothybrown8859]

Thank you!

[@MichelleJocelyn-j5n]

Is there a reason the ACV and coconut oil isn’t one of your top three anymore? Just saw that video and used it in my dog tonight. Though I have green tea too. So I could swap it out.

[@deboralintner6223]

Giving this a try

[@buckybuckybeaver]

Amazing! Thank you!

[@joanneg7646]

Oh my..❤❤❤ you doc.my chessie always in and out of the water or has his head buried in the snow😊. Him and i are predominately outside all day. i try to dry and keep clean his ears.how often can i use the green tea acv??

[@SuperWoodsy007]

Thank you so much for these remedies ! Locally there is a veterinary shortage or just too many pets for them to handle so it takes 3 weeks to get in for a visit, if you can find a vet taking on new clients at all.

[@mariagraziacapestrano6201]

Very intersting and useful, thank you a lot

[@lisaeccles8036]

Well, that is a great dog to take and tolerate all this demonstration!

[@mschelle2762]
