Ear Infections in Canine (Small Breeds)

Dive into the world of Ear Infections (Otitis Externa) in Small-Breed Dogs in this engaging and informative presentation by Prof. Dr. Mike Chan, tailored for veterinarians, veterinary nurses, and devoted pet owners. Small breeds—especially those with floppy ears, hairy canals, or heavy ear flaps—are particularly vulnerable to this painful condition, which causes inflammation of the outer ear canal and can be acute, chronic, unilateral, or bilateral. Causes range from allergies, parasites, and autoimmune disorders to bacteria, yeast, and environmental irritants, with symptoms such as head shaking, foul odour, redness, and ear discharge. Diagnosis combines otoscopic examination, cytology, and investigation of underlying conditions. Management blends careful ear cleaning, targeted medications, anti-inflammatory therapy, and, in persistent cases, surgical intervention. A holistic approach integrates advanced regenerative solutions like PSC (Precursor Stem Cell Therapy), FOP (Frozen Organo Peptides), FOC (Frozen Organo Cryogenics), plus TopPetPro innovations such as MITO Peptide Organotherapy and NANO Peptide Organotherapy, etc.—working together to repair tissue, reduce inflammation, and help prevent recurrence.
