Let’s talk ear infection infections

Hey community, I’m just wondering what tips people have to counter constant ear infections in our basset hounds.

I live in New Jersey and I don’t know if it’s my state, but my Bassett has allergies all year round. Now, especially spring summertime they’re in full swing and he gets more ear infections than he typically would. I cleaned his ears out every week. I try and add a little dab of vet recommended ear ointment. I’ve been told the shape of his ears inside are a little tight. I recently bought MALACETIC ultra to clean out his ears once a week with just putting a couple dabs since it contains Cortizone.

I’d love to hear everybody’s methods and I’m sure the community would love a post like this!

Thx all!
