Hoe u voor de oren van uw hond moet zorgen  door alexandra op 11 dec 2014 | Geen commentaar Although your dog's ears need to be reguarly cared for and monitored by your vet, it is quite simple to keep them clean and healthy yourself. This is especially important because it's not uncommon for parasites, bacteria or yeast to hide in the inner ear and cause plenty of pain and discomfort. It is also easy for dirt to become trapped in the ear due to the way dog's ears are shaped, trapping debris which can cause allergies and infections. Cocker spaniels, basset hounds and poodles are particularly vulnerable, due to their adorable floppy ears. To reduce infections or allergies, ear checks should be a regular part of your dog's grooming regime. If you take your dog to a groomer, ask them to pay special attention to their ears. However if you groom your dog yourself and their ears look dirty, clean them using a doggy ear cleaner on a dampened cotton ball. This is delicate enough on their skin so it won't cause any irritations and is very effective at cleaning the ears very well. Als uw hond harige oren heeft en u kunt zien dat sommige haren uit de gehoorgang zijn ontsproten, kunt u uw trimmer vragen om ze uit te pinnen of eenvoudig te knippen tot een lengte die niet mat of in de war raakt. Het wordt niet aanbevolen dat u ze zelf probeert te pinceteren, omdat het voor uw huisdier ongemakkelijk kan zijn en u niet wilt dat hij of zij die pijn met u associeert. If your dog is a frequent swimmer you may have noticed that post-swim their ears are irritated, which could mean some water has gotten into the ear. To prevent this from happening, dry your pooch's ears thoroughly using a cotton cloth. If you don't, it may lead to ear infections which can be painful.   If you notice any of the following symptoms, contact your vet at the earliest convenience: Discharge Smelly ears Redness Swelling Haaruitval jeuk Crusty skin Blood in ears Oor mijten Feature Credit Image Reactie (s)0 Doe mee aan het gesprek Name* * Voer uw naam in.
