Have you tried allergy injections? Most chronic ear infections are caused by environmental or food allergies. You might want to get him on antibiotics for a month to clear up the infection, then give steroid injections and see if that helps.
Agitated client walks in: "My dog is all crazy and agitated and won't sit still and his eyes are huge."
Me: "Are there any drugs in the house he could have gotten into?"
Client: "I think he got into methamphetamine."
Me: "Yep, that'll do it."

Des thanks for asking. I was so relieved yesterday when they said hook worms and they started treatment, but this morning the doctor called and said she was still not doing good -- a little better but not where he wanted her to be. he said she was very tender in her upper belly and wanted to do xrays, he thinks there may be an obstruction. just took the wind out of my sails. i hope she is not in any pain.

Okay, It's over -- She had a bunch of stuffing from one of her toys stuck in her gut. the doctor gave her something, she passed it and feels 100% better. I get to go pick her up this afternoon. I am so happy right now. What a roller coaster. Can't wait to have her home.
Thanks for everything ladies -- Now It's going to be a wonderful Easter.....
