Hope that helps :)
If you are not a professional groomer, be sure to not get water in their ears. Use cotton balls to block any water from getting through. Afterwards, use baby oil with the cotton ball and gently clean the ears. Be sure to not go too far down into the ear to avoid injury. I suggest laying your dog down after his bath at a time when he is already resting to place a few drops of ear wash and massage into the ear. Once massaged in and after a minute allow the dog to get up and shake his head to get out the left over ear wash. Then wipe down with a clean, dry cotton ball. Do the same for the other side. Don't forget to give your pup a hug and kiss for being good about it. Reinforce positivity.
