Hope the new treatment is successful. Good that there is improvement, which is encouraging and she looks so much happier in her photo.

She really does look happier in that photo, hope the drops really help. Does she mind getting them? Maxx vanishes like a ninja when we get the ear cleaner out

Sweet Cassie. 
She’s looking much more chipper in that second photo, hopefully the ear drops are still doing their thing.

I was concerned about how I'd manage, but she's been amazingly tolerant. She doesn't like the wash going in, but quite likes the cleaning. The drops I just pop in later once the ear is dry when I see her resting with the left ear uppermost.
Squeezy cheese has been enormously helpful!! I place it next to us and I can see her looking towards it as if to say "I've let you do that, now it's reward time!"
Also she was very happy going back into the vets room, so it can't have been that bad!

Hunter also had a gunky ear. Interestingly my vet approach was very different. She cleaned his ear and it was so deep that I thought she was going to tickle his throat. I was quite worried but Hunter had no issues. She then squirted a whole tube of cream in his ear and massaged it. The groans from Hunter were very embarrassing. Repeated again 4 days later and his ear is all good. I asked about drops but she said the cream was much better.

We had a different approach as well. They took Hugo back in the treatment area and deep cleaned his ears, then did a ‘one shot’ treatment and that was it, I’m curious now if that was also a cream? We do go back today for a 2 week recheck to make sure it’s all gone but he hasn’t been scratching at all since so I’m hopeful so far.

Maxx has his annual vet visit today for his shots and we will get the vet to do a good clean as we struggle with it. He has been shaking his head a lot and rubbing his left ear on the carpet for the last few days so I'm worried there could be a bit of an infection

@Loraseal and @Kelsey , interesting to read of the treatment your boys had, I will enquire about the one off approach should this happen again. One or two people have asked if suction could be used, so I will ask about that too.
Of couse it could be that I was slow on the uptake and there was a bigger job to do !
