Clean Ears

Shibas and other dogs of spitz breeds have an advantage over many other breeds, our ears stand up. This means that they are constantly exposed to open air, which keeps them clean. Poodles have ears which lies down to the sides of the ears. Our Poodle friend Laila needs to have her ears cleaned now and then, especially her right ear. Paula and Daniel helped her clean the right ear tonight. Laila hated it. Now that it is done, however, she is glad it is done. She says it feels better now. Sometimes, you need to go through hardship, to come out as a better self on the other side. I am glad I do not have to do this with my ears.
