Ear Infection Remedies for Pets

My dog's ear was stinking real bad and she was itching. I used 2 cups vinegar 1 cup water 1 tsp rubbing alcohol mixed it all up put it in spray and treated her ears. She didnt like the smell but I noticed she wasnt scratching and the smell of her ears is going down. She is also a big swimmer will continue to treat her ears for a few weeks.

I have been using rubbing alcohol and white vinegar (half/half), no water, on my dog's ears. My little malteese poodle has a tendency to get smelly ears, yeast problem, so I decided to use this mixture. I tilt his had side way and put about 3-5 drops in each ear and massage it in for a few seconds, then I wipe off the excess from his ears with a tissue. I do this after I bathe him. I continue doing that once a day for the next 2 days. He shakes his head for a few minute, afterward he is fine. I have been doing this for about 2 months now and he has no problem with smelly ears. I'm relieve to have found an easy solution to take care of his ears. Thank you all for the very helpful information.

My guys both had an ear problem, that wasn't mites. I had heard about using rubbing alcohol and white vinegar, and hydrogen peroxide and something else that I couldn't remember. I tried the alcohol and vin, which I tested on my elbow pits and eyelids, with no irritation. They shook for 20min, probably being a watery liquid it was different than mineral oil, and went deeper. They had been scratching themselves silly before, but they didn't scratch after treating them.
