Allergies/ Ear Infections

Post image

Does anyone else’s Selkirk suffer from chronic ear infections or allergies?
I adopted my girl about six months ago and she has been so itchy and suffered from reoccurring ear infections ever since. I feel awful and have spent every month and week taking her to a vet to treat her and figure out what’s triggering this. I’m starting a hydrolyzed protein diet after a failed attempt with novel proteins.
If you have any suggestions or experience with this please help!

I started using this every two weeks for ear issues after the vet did a culture of her ears and recommended it.

Can’t help with allergies though.

Thanks! I’m using the TrizUltra+keto from this brand which was recommended by my vets, but I’ll give this a try.
