Mites are common parasites on dogs. A small amount of mites will not produce adverse reactions on dogs, but if dogs grow too many mites, there will be some adverse symptoms. For example, when mites gather in the dog’s ears, they will form ear mites. After the dog has ear mites, his ears will feel uncomfortable, causing the dog to often scratch his ears and bleed. The mucus seeping from the ears can cause the ears to become bulky and thick, and it can also lead to anxiety symptoms in dogs. So what should dogs do after mites grow on their ears?

When shaking his head, there will be some dirt in the dog’s ears, and then we can wipe the dirt with toilet paper. If our dog is a long haired dog, we have to clean the hair in its ears.
