Canine Yeast Infection Prevention | Dog Yeast Infection Prevention
Dog yeast infections thrive in moist, dark environments, so it’s important to keep your doggie’s ear clean and dry, especially if your dog has big floppy ears like spaniels, hounds or Labradors. Dogs with ears that stick up have less trouble with ear yeast infections because oxygen and sunlight can penetrate the inner ears and are yeast’s natural enemies. However, no matter the shape or size of your dog’s ears, it always helps to keep the dogs ears clean to prevent infections and the odor that can come from the dog’s ears once they are infected.
Other precautions to keep your dog clean will cut down on excessive oil build up in the skin:
- Dampness is another invitation to yeast – so keep your pet’s fur dry
- Special attention to the ears and in between the toes where moisture can accumulate.
- Keep his bedding clean and dry
A weakened immune system due to old age, serious health issues or poor diet can bring on a yeast infection, so make sure to follow proven remedies and healthy habits as your pet gets older
A healthy, clean environment goes a long way toward protecting your dog from all types of infections, yeast included. A fit, lean dog can fight off physical problems better than an overweight, depressed dog. Health related issues including canine yeast infections, can become a problem with a compromised immune system .
Yeast thrives in a moist environment making sunshine and air circulation yeast’s natural enemies. If your dog will tolerate it, hold back his ears for a short period everyday with a head band. (Only do this when your dog is indoors or resting, not when he’s running through tall grass or swimming.) Again, if your dog allows you to, hold a hair dryer set on low several feet away from your dog’s ears and dry the insides for a minute each.
Ask your vet how to clean the inside of your dog’s ears with a vinegar and water solution. Not only is vinegar a mild desiccant, it also acidifies the environment further discouraging yeast growth. Vinegar will also help to neutralize nasty odors emanating from your dog’s ears.
It is wise to be sure that your dog gets top quality dog food, constant access to clean water, lot’s of exercise and has a clean bed. A healthy vitamin regime is also advised as it keeps your pet’s immune system strong to fight of infections and the free radicals that can lead to diseases.
