sounds like a yeast infection vet should be able to clear it up

Mix up white vinegar and rubbing alcohol in a 60/40 mix. 60 being the vinegar.

Put in a clean windex bottle(spray) or something equal to that.

Spray in dogs ears thoroughly every other day for about two weeks. Spray in and squeeze the ear canal to get the liquid into the ear. Let dog shake it out then spray in again to rinse the ear.

Do this every other day for two weeks as previously stated. I have had great success with this. Vinegar is a natural antifungal and will help in removing or dissolving ear wax. The Alcohol is a drying agent that will help evaporate excess moisture in the ear.

Keep us updated....this is no secret recipe...I learned it from an old beagler when dealing with fungus of other types on dogs.

Good luck!

Go to store and get the same --product that a lady would use for YEAST INFECTION --- U have to use it everyday until it clears up --and not just do once and think it will cure it
