Our vet reccomended
We have a long eared pup, and that comes with the maintaining of those ears. Our vet recommended this product years ago and we’ve used it multiple times ever since. I typically put the solution on a soft rag and rug my finger through the crevasse of his ears. Continue doing so until the rag comes out clean.

Finally had to break down and purchase…
a product like this for my apartment-bound kittehs. After 8 years my oldest’s ears were starting to get a bit dirty. My newest 1 yo was too, so I bought and used this a week ago and after the second application, seemed to get their ears nice and pinky clean again. After a week my oldest started scratching his left ear and after inspection, found it was inflamed. Didn’t know why then but thought to use the wash before taking him to the vet’s. The day after application, the redness was gone except for a small spot on the outer edge. It appears he got a small wound from fighting his little sister. All’s good though. I credit his quick recovery to the Wash’s beneficial attributes

Works great!
Our little yorkie has hair growing in her ears. This dries them out very quickly. She hates it, but she shakes her head and wipes her head off on a towel. It evaporates quickly and is worth it to prevent swimmers ear from her baths. Highly recommend.

GREAT BUY !!!!!
We a rambunctious 4 yr lab. We live in the country and while he is an indoor dog ((yes we are those people that let the dog on the couch and sleeps with us in bed)) he LOVES being outside… which we are out most of the time… hiking in the woods working in the yard etc. his ears are always dirty. i had been using the pads to clean them but it takes forever and he’s not really good at sitting still. This stuff is GREAT !!!! and i think it keeps them cleaner for longer! he’s not shaking his heads or scratching his ears like he used to. Its Great

The same stuff I get from my vet
This is the same product my veterinarian sells to me, so I am confident when I need to use it on my dogs. And it is much cheaper from Amazon. It works will for my dogs, alleviating their need to scratch and getting ride of the odor from their ears. Shake well before use, fill the ear canal, rub the ear to get the debris in the ear lose, let them shake their heads and then us a soft tissue to clean the outside of the ear canal. The only drawback to this is the smell. The smell isn’t bad, but it lingers for a long, long time. But worth the price.

Helped with cleaning ears
Its easy to use just get a cotton pad and wipe the outer ear being careful to NOT go inside. To clean the inside, make sure you have enough solution on the cotton pad, place on ear, fold the ear and rub gently squeezing the liquid. That easy.It doesn’t have a smell. When you pour it its going to be cold so warm it a little so your pets can be comfortable.

Cat stopped scratching his head
My cat of course dislikes getting his ears cleaned, but this product is light and clean and he stopped scratching his head after one use. Also I think it smells nice, an herbal woodsy kind of smell, not too strong. My vet recommended this brand as well. So I think it is overall quite good.

My cats ears had dirt that wouldn’t go away for some time, took him to the vet it wasn’t ear mites just some buildup that needs to be consistently cleaned. I’ve used other products but this one helped right away. Now I only clean his ears every once in a while and the dirt doesn’t get built up like it used to.

Perfect for Doodles
Good ear cleanser – perfect for doodles!Our pup (Goldendoodle) was itching his ears, we had been to the vet and groomer. Our groomer recommended this to help cleanse his ears, it has helped! It is a little pricey but worth it to keep his ears clean and keep him healthy! The bottle is perfect and functional.

Works well, clean scent
What’s with the “worn out” label, looks like it was returned/ used or something worse. Made me a little uneasy 😬. Seem okay once opened.Good product that I purchased before. It has a clean smell that my Dane seems to like. Works well to break down wax buildup. I use a cotton rounds with a small squeeze of product on it, weekly. The dog seems happier if the ears are wiped dry once cleaned. Great at removing any bad odor from ears. Have used a variety of products over the years and ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS ONE! It is worth the cost.

Solid solution at an expensive price
Not a good value for the money It is way too small. Very stinky. Seems to be great though in terms of what it does and the dogs although hate it they put up with it and let me massage their ears and sit still for 30 seconds. Overall a good solution product but not a good price.

Really works for my pup!
Our pup would scratch his ears until the skin bled. I thought “THAT’S not going to continue!” He gets a dose in each ear after I’m completely finished rinsing him after his bath because then he’s outta there! He hasn’t scratched his ears since the first use!

Ear cleaner for our cat works well!
Our cat has had a lot of problems with ears. She does not have ear mites. Just a light brown wax at times hit and miss. I am not sure if she has food allergies; but know that she has allergies hit and miss. I do a lot of research on safety & health for our cat. I found this product ot have a lot of excellent reviews. I was skeptical at buying this first; but then I was thankful that I did. So this product has helped her out tremendously. I am thankful that I found it; and will definitely continue to buy more in the future!

Works well
Took my dog to get groomed and they completely missed cleaning one of her ears. Didn’t want to haul her all the way back to the groomers for one ear so went on amazon and found this. Her ear was pretty dirty and stinky but this worked well. Took a few days to get the results we needed but didn’t take long and was very easy to use. 👍🏼up on this product and will be repurchasing in the future.

easy to use
I found warming the ear cleaner made the process more comfortable for my dog; I just had to make sure it was not too warm. I found about 98 degrees (warming the bottle in cup of warm water, not in the microwave.) worked well. I found if the solution was too cold it seemed to hurt. I did not want to make it to hot other wise it could burn. I always check the solution temperture on inside of my wrist to make sure it is not to hot.Please read the labelIf you warm your solution you are doing it at your own risk-Always check the temperature (to make sure it will not cause injury) before applying into ear

Good Overall Cleaner
When I used to work at a vet hospital, this was the only ear cleaner we used. So when I needed ear cleaner for my dog, I bought some. It smells different than it used to. Not as bad (the old stuff smelled awful), it’s not super strong, but still has a weird medicinally, floral-wannabe odor. It’s odd and I can’t pin-point it.Directions state to squirt in the ear but my dog freaks and runs away if I do that. So I use cotton rounds (sold in makeup departments of stores) soaked in it. Works fine that way. It does make the fur around the outside of her ear a bit greasy, but not too bad. It seems to clear debris pretty well and she doesn’t mind it vs. a dry pad.It doesn’t help with ear odor. My dog has some allergies so her ears tend to get a bit stinky when they get dirty. I use this and clean them but the odor lingers to some degree. But, it seems to help her in that her ears seem to be less itchy once I started using this regularly.i would recommend this as a trusted brand and a good product.

Best product for our pets ears
This was recommended by our vet. Our golden retriever had a recurring dirty ear, yrs, just one ear. She would scratch often, sometimes creating sores on her head. To address itching, before we recognized it was an ear problem, we would give her a daily half tablet of Benadryl. And when the ear got bad, brown bits in her ear, off to the vet for antibiotics which would take four weeks to resolve.Now, I wash both ears once a day. Itching stopped. No more benadryl.it was that simple.I take two cotton balls, one for each ear, and wet with product. I put one in her bad ear, squeeze and massage. I leave it in while I do the same for the second ear. Then I massage both ears with the cotton ball still in the ear.I remove the cotton ball from the 2nd ear, and wipe off as far as I can into her ear using the cotton ball. Then I do the same on the 1st ear (bad one). Net I leave the solution in the 1st ear the longest.To finish up, I use a couple of tissues to dry the hair around the ear.No more ear fungus, and I do it daily, not waiting for a fungus to start. I highly recommend this product, as does my vet.While I do it once a day, I also do it after a round of lake swimming and diving. Or if I know it will be a swim day, I just do it once after swimming.I do not use q tips, worried I’ll go too far. Instead, I grab the wet cotton from the ear using a Hemostat Forcep, and use that as a large q tip to wipe into the ear canal.Highly recommend this product for daily use. (Like it says in the bottle). Safe for daily use. It’s part of our daily hygiene for our golden.

Gets rid of itchy ears
Our dog, Chai has an issue with dry/itchy ears. Our vet recommended just cleaning her ears whenever she starts shaking. After the first use we noticed her ears stopped bothering her as much. Like others said, the smell is the only thing thats a downfall to using this when she shakes her head after putting this in her ears the solution gets thrown around a little too.
