Epiotic contains propylene glycol 30-40% a type of antifreeze so do a lot of other commercial products. The best thing to use would be malaseb though imagine it also has some PG content it's probably diluted down a fair bit in water. I just rub a little around the entrance to external ear canal when washing my dogs and rinse really well then gently dry the canal with paper towels. You can make a solution of 1 part malaseb to 30-40 parts water and flush the ear but I just find it easier to do whilst bathing them. If your after something pre made years ago we used to use leo ear cleaner with great success and no problems it's also quite drying as for PG content I don't know. They've begun remaking it again Kleo : http://www.pharmachem.com.au/products/listing/kleo.html but if the canal is already partially compromised I wouldn't try anything other than antibiotics or possibly malaseb or pyohex.

there are some canine ear powders that are meant to work pretty well at stopping ear infections maybe you could use something along those lines.

Well sadly in some dogs I think this is the case. Whether it hinders them or not I'd imagine it would, and how are you really going to know unless you own an X ray machine. Pretty sure a dog would show signs of discomfort and blockages. I'm sure the intestine is capable of dialting enough to pass fresh matter pass old. When was the last time you went on a turkey neck diet? The upside of feeding necks is that if your lucky they may stay intact enough not to cause any problems. But I wouldn't take the risk especially on a day to day basis, and would certainly advise agaist feeding any bones that have a tendency to shard or splinter. Humans digestive systems are quite different to that of the dog, so thats not a valid argument. Feed what you want, but don't spread inaccurate and incorrect information. Sorry whats not vailid about it? I personally think feeding bone to dogs is risky business man! And I'm certain there is alot of eveidence to back this. But we are all entitled to our own opinions so you just believe what you want to.

Antibiotics or corticosteroid cream would be prescribed by a vet. A natural antibiotic that would not irritate the condition further like most antibacterial or fungals would to regularly apply colloidal silver 2-3 times a day. It makes a really good salve when mixed with aloe vera use min 99% aloe and don't let the dog lick it as aloe is toxic for dogs to ingest.

SAMe and GLME are natural and I think anti-inflammatories Some others are buffered Aspirin, MSM, and Manganese Glucosamine is a building block for cartilage, chondroitin for synovial fluid.

I'd recommend the closet to you, generally best to be close to hand. Hawthorn Veterinary Clinic has great vets and facilities + is open Sundays at emergency rates Ive also always like the idea of the The Holistic Veterinary Clinic: 308 Glen Osmond Road FULLARTON SA, 5063 http://www.holisticvetonline.com/hvc/'>http://www.holisticvetonline.com/hvc/ http://www.holisticvetonline.com/ But it's too far from where I live and I'm not sure if it even still exists.

As I said I thought I could recall but would have to look into it further. Are you sure? Sure that the source dosen't just say they're cpable of digesting bone?

Yeah you'd have to get buffered or else they get highly concentrated stomach acid. I've never tried buffered aspirin before on my dogs but apparently it's as effective and when you consider the potential side effects NSAID's have it's really a no brainier.

All I'm saying is there's safer ways to get your pet the adequate amount of calcium and clean their teeth. Bone marrow is most likey highly nutritious but very fatty, bone it's self meh. Would you feed your dogs raw turkey drumstick or thigh bones? No..as they are weight bearing bones...I feed turkey necks & wings if I can't get necks. There wouldn't be much nutrient left after you pressure cook them for hours. I think the calcium would still be there and most likely a lot more bio available as for the marrow not so much. I think I recall reading that shards arent the only problematic thing about bone and that apparently even small fragments can remain undigested and accumulate overtime. This is true also for some humans who ingest unimaginable things like large amounts of hair most commonly found in severe cases of atypical Tricotilomanía.

Vets must make a killing out of pinched nerves last time I was at one I overheard the receptionist advising a owner on how much and how often to give the meds for a back problem owner must have forgot or something, also overheard the owner being consulted by the vet before me on how often to give some med for a back problem and guess why I was there with my pooch........... and it's not the first time either. Must be something to do with the obesity epidemic or something. I'm lucky know because though well not lucky that my other dogs got a luxating patella but it does make it a hell of a lot easier to get NSAID's W/O a consultation. Aspirins another alternative though it needs to be buffered there are pet manufacturers buffering is also ideal for NSAID's too if at all possible.

Would you feed your dogs raw turkey drumstick or thigh bones? My dogs get turkey legs. Would you stop feeding them to them if they got a shard lodged in their throat or ruptured their GI tract?

I'm pretty sure there's a fair few videos if you google it. Vets do it internally whether this is the healthiest way or just the least smelly/messy way I dont know. The videos generally show the external way. I've never been shown the internal way so just express them externally. I think the trick is to be gentle but firm and make it quick once it starts coming out increase the pressure slightly till it's all gone. Don't prolong the experience as your dog will hate you for it and you could cause some damage.
