About this deal

If the animal drags its bottom on the floor and if it's not anal gland trouble, the mites could have made a breeding bed under the tail. Treatment: Apply a tiny amount of animal skin cream to the finger of a glove and dip into the Thornit Powder. Apply just below the tail where necessary. For all treatments only a very small amount of Thornit powder is needed per dose. Apply Thornit powder twice a day. Care should be taken as iodoform could stain a pale carpet or furnishings.

I have been using Thornit on my Labrador now for 4 days. He has had ongoing ear infections for most of his life which I have spent a fortune on with various vet prescribed washes, drops and oral antibiotics, none of which have helped. So I thought I would try this. The wax (well brown yukky stuff) seems definitely to be drying up slightly, but there is still a lot of moisture when I massage his ear. The texture is changing to a more treacle like consistency. My question is (a) how long does this normally take to work and (b) do I need to wash his ears out with ear wash whilst treating him with Thornit?

These are caused by the mites chewing the ear. The scabs can be dry or weep slightly causing a smell. Apply just a tiny amount of cream or Vaseline to the finger of glove and dip into Thornit.

You can carry on using for a little longer for up to 10 days but if the problem hasnt been resolved by then it probably isnt canker or mites and you would need to speak to your vet again. Personally, I have no idea why people use this ear powder! I have so many dogs come in with powdery ears and it doesnt do anything! Ear mites are probably a no no as they only really exist when the animal is really young as they have to catch them from another dog and is quite rare in older animals. Ear cleaner is prob the best thing as it breaks down the wax and gets right to the bottom of the ear Please Note: For all treatments only a very small amount of Thornit Canker Powder is needed per dose. Care should be taken as the active ingredient iodoform could stain pale carpets or furnishings.
