My dog scratches her ear until it bleeds. I can tell by her behaviour that this causes her pain, so I don't know why she does this. Any ideas?

Take her to the vet ASAP
so this problem can be diagnosed,
and treated,
before it gets worse
she may have a fungal infection
an infestation of ear mites
a grass seed embedded in the ear canal
or an infection
Do not wait, till it becomes a chronic condition ,
have it sorted now .
Poor girlie

Check your dogs ears. Look for dirt, moisture, or anything else out of the ordinary. Clean your dogs ears well!!!!!!! Also, look for little bugs (mites) that may be causing itching. IF you find any little critters, take her to your vet to have them checked into.

Probably ear mites. Could also be an infection. They itch the outside because they can't get to the inside where it actually itches.
Take her to a vet.

ear mites probably they have drops for that . Also it may sound crazy but my mom has a dog that has bad allergies and itches her ears alot and licks and bites her feet and the vet told her to take benedryl but I would sure check with my vet first.

She probably has mites.If her ears smell really bad and have a dark discharge inside them take her to a vet.She may also have an infection.

mostly likely your dog has an accumulation of earwax. specially if your dog has long ears, your going to have to keep his/hers ears clean and dry as long you have the dog. fist take your dog to the vet to get your dog ears flush, poor baby...
