I just recently moved to a new city, and took my dog (a pug) to the vet for a routine check up. The vet informed me my dog had an ear infection, and gave me amoxicillin. I have never heard of this for use in dogs? Is this common and does it work? I have reasons to not trust the vet... I had a bad experience there and will not go back (long story).
Also, what does an ear infection in a dog look like? His ear had a lot of yellow and brown build up. I clean them about once every 2 weeks. The build up comes back after a week or so. It always looked like just ear wax to me. Never thought it was infected. The dog never acted like he was having problems with his ears either.
I got a feeling the vet was just trying to sell me everything he could. He gave my dog a shot and didn't tell me what it was (it was for the infection) and charged for an ear cleaning, ear infection sample, and a whole lot of other nonsense. All the while, not telling me what happened. So, I don't trust him. Thanks
