How to Clean Your Dog's Ears and Eyes

Cleaning your dog's ears and eyes is an essential part of your pet's grooming. It not only helps keep your dog looking their best, but it's also important for their health and well-being. In this blog post, we explain step-by-step how to clean your dog's ears and eyes.

Why is it important to clean your dog's ears and eyes?

Cleaning your dog's ears and eyes helps prevent infections and other health problems . Excess earwax, for example, can lead to ear infections, while dirt and dust in the eyes can cause irritation or even eye infections.

  3. Apply a small amount of dog ear cleaner to a cloth. Be careful not to use too much. You can also use a finger cloth.
  4. Gently wipe inside your dog's ear. Be careful not to go too deep to avoid damaging the eardrum. Only wipe the areas you can see.
  5. After cleaning your dog's ears, gently dry them with a clean, dry cloth or towel. This helps remove excess moisture, which can be a breeding ground for bacteria.
