Guest guest Posted January 7, 2002 Report Share Posted January 7, 2002 You could sure try packing them in cayenne pepper. One of Doc's cures for cuts. I know it worked for me when I cut my finger pretty badly. Patty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 7, 2002 Report Share Posted January 7, 2002 Good Evening, I am desperate for help!! I left to go out of town on Thursday and left my boxer pups ears taped thinking my husband would take care of her. Well he didn't!! I got home tonight and her ears look AWFUL! The tape cut into the base of the ear and smells as if it is infected. It might not seem like a big problem but the way they look it is. I cleaned them off really good with peroxide and put an antibiotic cream on them. I also started her on antibiotic pills. She keeps scratching at them and making them bleed. I need to know if I should cover this up or if I should leave it open and any other opinions on what to do. I feel like such a bad mommy!! Please help!

Guest guest Posted January 7, 2002 Report Share Posted January 7, 2002 Vetrinarians have these special plastic collars for dogs to keep them from doing that. They look really stupid but in this case it's necessary. Also when the antibiotic cream wears off, get some ointment with Golden Seal in it. One such product is called " Turtle Island Shotgun Ointment " , and is available at many health food stores. At 09:01 PM 1/6/02 -0600, you wrote: >Good Evening, >I am desperate for help!!

Guest guest Posted January 7, 2002 Report Share Posted January 7, 2002 Thanks so much. Unfortunately the e-collar won't work. I bought one of these a few weeks ago to try to keep her from getting the wrap off of her ears to begin with. I let her out to go potty and not 5 minutes later the collar was ripped up. I will look into the ointment you suggested...thanks so much!!
