Ear Wax: how much is too much?

[Mobylicious]

Hi there again

Since I am still inexperience with doggy matters I would like to pose yet another question. I have been noticing that I clean Moby's ears and couple of days later the wax is back. It's not like the ears are clogged or anything but I thought maybe he will last clean a little longer??

Thanks for suggestions to the new mommy....

Some dogs are just wax producers, although many more of them are floppy eared dogs. Just keep them clean. If it gets to a point where you just can't seem to keep up with them (getting the same amount of wax out every day), then it's possible that Moby may have an ear infection starting. Excessive ear wax production can also be related to allergies, whether they are seasonal or food related.

I noticed a bunch of wax in Doji's ear and used something called Earoxide.  I don't know how to put up a picture of it or I would.  You put a few drops in each ear and then massage the ears.  It worked really well.  The only thing is that the outsides of his ears were covered in disgusting stuff that needed to be cleaned.  I did it two or three times over a two week period until his ears stayed white and no gunk came out.  I wouldn't use it all the time.  But it worked!  His ears were bothering him and when I realized I went and bought it and now they don't bother him.

Hi there
No he doesn't get the same amount everyday but every couple of days. I am going to try to clean them with a cleaning product and see if it lasts a little longer, if not I have to go to the vet soon for booster shots and I will ask him.

Thanks a lot!
