Sorry, not from your area. Is the ear red? Will he let you massage it and search for signs of a bug bite/sting? Is there any odor (ear mites stink)? Can you feel any heat in the ear? Our old girl used to fuss with her ear occassionally, held it down, shook her head and moaned while she scratched at it then smelled her foot when she stopped. I would check it but couldn't find anything either. She did like a massage at the base so whatever it was it must have been deep. Since she only did this occassionally and did not fixate on it we lived with it. It could be ear wax and I'm sure there is a solution you can pour in there to help but I can't think of the name. Just be sure to do it outside if you go that route...it gets messy.
Good luck

Tell the recerptionist you are /Jan's company from out of town..Need to see Doc Henderson today or tomorrow asap ..I will call therm if you like and tell them to work you in last appt for doc..I will pm you or you can call me..
you just go to galveston to see the beach.He probably got lots of water in his ears from Florida beach..and they are wet inside....drop a couple of drops of alcohol per my vet heres advice...or go to Walmart and buy a bottle of swimmers ear...treat for three or four days...he has wet ears. After you cross the causeway,. watch for 61st exit to the right exit go to
61st. and turn right go down past 2 red lights and Galveston Animal clinic is on left in a tiny business strip about 2 blocks past a chinese restuarant.
alcohol will not harm the ear as you only put three drops rub and let him shake it out..it will release the water. and dry.
Don't anyone state that that is dangerous...my vet here in Tyler does know what he is talking about...A dog that has been beaching for several times in FLorida, no doubt has wet ears.
If you want pm me and I will give you Docs number... edit: 409 744 5355

I agree with YR about the alcohol. Don't waste your money on the swimmer's ear drops though, basically alcohol and my own human doctor gave me that advice. Didn't think about him maybe having swimmers ear.
Good luck

He takes his time, really looks for answers and then gives you his opinion is a language that is not "doctor-eze".
His prices are decent too.
