Chloe (Cos Cob, CT) on 07/07/2019:
My dog has had chronic ear infections for the past 3 years. They were treated with drops from the vet but always returned a week after stopping the drops.
I then found a remedy here and results were much longer lasting lasting than what I got at the vet.
4 oz witch hazel
1 tbsp boric acid
4 drops gentian violet
Add products to a glass dropper bottle if you have one and shake well each time you use the remedy. Put several drops in your dogs ears twice a day and massage using gentle, circular movements.
How Long to Use:
Use twice a day for the first week, then once a day for the 2nd week. After that, maintain by adding drops once a day.
Hope this helps someone as ear infections are seriously uncomfortable for dogs and can lead to hearing loss.
