Schnauzer (ear infection)

jaclyn · 07-18-2008, 01:19 PM

My mini schnauzer is scratching his ear, foul odor, waxy. Looks to be an infection (otis externa...had it before) This time though, his one eye seems to have some yellow discharge. I can only assume its related. Maybe allergies? Called the vet this morning, but they are closed until tuesday. Anything I can do, to help him out, until I can get him an appointment?

I would call a different vet and have him seen. He is most likely in pain and it will only get worse. You have several clinics to chose from.

Thanks, I did. Got him an appointment tomorrow at Dunkirk Animal Hospital.
