I have a one year old German Shepard mix, & Lately my family and I have noticed that he scratches his ears a lot and shakes his head almost constantly.
Sometimes he'll also rub his ears against an object or blanket, and most of the time he keeps his ears to the sides, flat.
I think it could be an ear infection or ear mites. =(
We looked in his ears, well, tried to but it irritated him and he would lay down, rubbing his ears against the carpet and then stand and walk off. It did seem there were some dark spots and I think maybe even some blood. I love him to death and I'm really worried!
We're already planning on cleaning his ears and looking in them more, and then taking a trip to the vet.
I just need to know if it could be something like these, or different that I'm missing or something else besides these and if there's anything I can do for him until we take him to the vet.
Thank you, I greatly appreciate your opinions. <3
