If you are unsure of whether your dog is having otitis or is it just earwax, please continue reading.  Dog ears can become greasy, too, just like any human ear. Therefore, you need to clean them the same way: with ear swabs or with wet wipes. But they need to be cleaned often, as they can quickly become greasy again. Dog earwax has a dark brown color, and this is normal.  Watch our video in which we show how you should clean your Frenchie's ears: https://youtu.be/fe6pMPInyg8   If your dog starts to shake his head and scratch the ears with his legs, go and check his ears. If you see a light yellow colored, purulent fluid instead of the usual dark brown, thick wax, your dog needs antibiotic ear drops.
