Getting drops into my dogs ear?
My dog has an ear infection and i really need to get drops into her ear but anytime i try to get near her with the bottle she starts bearing her teeth, scratching and biting. Ive tried things like distracting her with food but nothing works. Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks

Have a family member, or someone else she trusts, hold her for you so that she can't move enough to bite. I'd also consider buying a muzzle for her to wear just for when you have to put the drops in.
If nothing works, call the vet up and ask if there are any other treatment options.

since the dog is being aggressive about it and I know they don't mean to be it just hurts :(
you can put a collar on dog, then have someone gently place a towel over her eyes til she calms down then quietly start putting drops in. also, are the drops cold? you can warm the bottle up under hot water. maybe the drops are cold and they are hitting her tender skin. poor baby :( feel better soon
