Default Ear Infection

I took Keepers to the vet today after he yelped when itching his ear last night. The poor man has an ear infection in both ears. He's on an oral antibiotic and ear drops. I hope he feels better soon!

yeah Tie's had a couple ear infections over the years. I'm not certain but i believe he was getting them cause our other boxer at the time, Lennox, would keep licking the inside of his ears. I don't know if that would cause it, but it sure seemed like the cause

I read something that said double ear infections are often linked to food allergies. He had been on raw a long time and we had just tried to start putting him on kibble. We took him off the kibble for other reasons but now I wonder if the ear infection had anything to do with it. He's eating The Honest Kitchen food now and has two meds. He seems to be a lot better already.
