I will be taking my Rozee (14 y.o.) in tomorrow to get her right ear checked out. They have a weird smell not yeasty but maybe sour smelling. She has been afraid of loud noises lately and is just acting weird, wants to hide and stay away from any active areas of the house. She also had a dental recently about 2 weeks ago and they did pull a tooth so I was wondering if their might be some relation there. Infection? also has been coughing lately.

I remember readings something about eardrops and a possible side effect of deafness. It may have been Sue and Zoe but I can't remember for sure. Just wanted to know if anybody rembered so if Rozee's vet prescribes any eardrops, I want to make sure it is not the rx that has a side effect of deafness.

Eardrops with a side effect of deafness just doesn't make sense
