Adult Welsh Pembroke Corgi's ear turned floppy


 Share

Recommended Posts

My 8 year old corgi's ear has recently turned floppy in the last couple of days. It's most noticeable every time she runs around or plays her right ear keeps flopping and is not erect. Any ideas how this happened? Will it resolve on it's own or should I seek medical treatment for this?

The first thing I would do is consult your vet. Especially to check for ear infection, foreign body in ear, dental examination for any infection or abscess or broken teeth, and check for anything like muscle wastage around the head area. Any of these things could contribute to a change of earset in an adult dog. Even things like a grass seed abscess in the mouth, face, or even the eye pocket. 

Even a nasty bump to the head might cause it, but I’d get a thorough examination inside and out around the head, mouth & ears.
