In the many years I've had dogs there were only two things of dogs shaking their heads that I dealt with…ear infections due to ear mites and ear infections due to bad dog food…
The dog food issue was the hardest to cure..no treatment worked until I swapped to another brand of dog food…i had been feeding sportsmix for years and something went wrong with it…after a few years I am back to feeding sportsmix again and dogs look good…
The earnites…the easiest way to cure earmites and fleas is give the 50-60 pound dog 1.5 cc’s of ivomec or whatever brand as long as the Zimecterin is 1 percent…the paste is 1.87 percent but you will have to guess-stemate how much to give…whichever I use I mix it with a little gravy or soup and they will lick the bowl clean…just enough to kill the flavor so the dog gets full strength…it takes a week or a little longer but if it is earmites all will clear up…
Skip a couple of weeks and give another cc of ivomec and repeat ever 2-1/2 to 3 months and your dog will never get infected with earmites or fleas…it seems to kill most of the stomach worms…and no fleas equals no tape worms…
