    Good news!

    It's not cheap. But when I added up the costs of the tablets, the drops, the ear-wipes.....the additional cost comes down. And then there's the fact that it actually works.... it seems like a good deal.

    Itchy Molly

    I think so. Although to be honest I've not been paying much attention - I've always assumed that his recurrent ear problems are a matter of recurrent infections (yeast / bacterial) so I've not noted the time of year. It was only recently that the vet pointed out that the underlying issue...

    Good news!

    I believe so. My (admittedly limited) understanding is something like this.

    Thank you lovely Squidge <blush>. I was only a young lad then, I hadn't even had a single burfday. Everyone said I was a big boy but mum says I was still her tinylittlelabradorpuppy.

    Happy birdy Fergus mate, hope you got some presents in the end. @Candy Goodgirljoy, I like your houseinnafeeld, I asked mum if we could do houseinnafeeld but she said no because lookwhathappenedlasttimepongo. I don't know what she means.
