- Head shaking
- Odor
- Ear scratching or rubbing

- Plant material caught in the ear
- Water trapped in the ears
- Narrowed ear canals
- Other environmental factors
Exam: Your vet will look down the ear with an otoscope to assess the ear and eardrum.
Cytology: Your veterinarian will commonly look at discharge from the affected ear(s) under a microscope to see what organisms are present.
