Petglow Ear Infection treatment is gentle,
Non-sting solution for both Dogs and Cats.
The Ear canal of Pets harbor bacteria, fungus, Yeast along with build up of regular dirt and wax and its very important to clean them regularly. Failure to clean leads to the itchiness and infections. Some Pets may not need regular cleaning as they may have cleaner ears for longer periods of time as over cleaning is also not recommended.
Recognizing the signs, understanding the causes, and seeking prompt veterinary care are crucial for managing and preventing ear infections in dogs.
Mechanical cleaning using a soft cotton ball is the usually the recommended way to clean. Hold the ear flap upright & by gently squeezing the bottle for about 5sec, fill the ear canal with the solution. Gently massage the base of the ear with your fingers for about 25-30s.
IMPORTANT: Never use a Q-Tip as that may damage the ear canal.
The Petglow Difference.
Our product has been carefully formulated to address the broad spectrum of ear issues that pets often encounter. We have taken into account leading research conducted at NIH to create a product that is effective without any harmful side effects. The Pet ear is a complex environment containing various microbes, bacteria, yeast, and fungus, and our product has been designed to address all of these issues.
Petglow: The Intersection of Veterinary Science and Natural Formulations.
Petglow is the result of years of work, combining veterinary science and natural formulation expertise. Our team has conducted extensive research to ensure that all of our ingredients are safe and compatible for pets. We understand that pets have sensitive skin and a thinner epidermis layer, which is why we only use non-toxic ingredients that do not cause side effects when absorbed into their bloodstream unlike other products which cause issues when they get absorbed.

Petglow Ear Solution will treat Acute (Instant) and Chronic (Long term) Ear infections.
Otitis Externa- Hypersensitivity to the Ear Canal: Hypersensitivity to the Ear Canal by external stimuli like scratching, Alcohol, Chemicals etc. This is most important factor to consider for Ear Cleansing never to use ingredients such as Alcohol, EDTA, Β Hydrocortisone etc as this may ONLY Treat temporary Ear condition leading to Predisposing Factor 2.
Predisposing Factor: Ears with excessive hair, stenotic ears, increased cerumen production in the canals, otic masses, frequent ear cleaning.
Secondary Causes: Bacteria, Parasites, yeast are perpetuating factors. If infection travels deeper, this will lead to recurrent external ear infections.
Perpetuating Factor: Effective treatment includes treatment of Bacterial, Fungal, Yeast infection and Inflammatory changes as only treating one of Either will lead to other worsening condition and will make the infection Chronic (Long term).
The Root Causes of Pet Ear Infections
Bacterial Infections: Staphylococcus and Pseudomonas bacteria thrive in the warm, moist environment of the ear, leading to infections.
Yeast Overgrowth: Malassezia, a common yeast, can multiply in the ear canal, especially in dogs with allergies.
Foreign Objects: Debris, dirt, or foreign objects in the ear can create a breeding ground for infections.
Allergies: Environmental or food allergies can make a dog or cat more susceptible to ear infections.
Petglow was built backed by strong Veterinary science coupled with Natural formulation expertise. Unlike other products where you will notice Human ingredients are included for Pets we have ensured after years of research and background to ensure that the ingredients are compatible for Pets. We understand the Pet's skin is much more sensitive compared to humans given that Humans have a thicker epidermis layer. Other products that are applied enter the skin and inside the body and become toxic at a higher rate leading to other side effects and this is why we are different since we have formulated the product to ensure that even though pets absorb they become non-toxic when it enters their blood stream. We have also built the product taking into consideration leading research done at NIH ensuring we are covering the entire broad spectrum of ear issues and not just focus on a an individual problem as a Pet ear is a melting pot of several microbes, bacteria, yeast and fungus with our product built to address all these issues.
Ear infections can be caused by factors such as ear mites, bacterial infections (Staphylococcus, Pseudomonas), yeast overgrowth (Malassezia), foreign objects in the ear, and allergies (food or environmental).

If the ear drum is damaged, there can be several consequences to the Pet's hearing and overall well-being. For instance, improper objects inserted into the ear can pose a serious threat to the Pet's health, potentially resulting in deafness. Please ensure that Q-Tips are not used as they can cause physical damage. Additionally, a damaged ear drum may lead to other complications such as ear infections, pain, and difficulty balancing. It is crucial to treat and protect the ear drum to avoid these potential issues and maintain optimal hearing health.
Ear infections in dogs can lead to significant trauma due to their natural response to the discomfort and itching caused by the infection. When dogs have ear infections, they may exhibit behaviors such as scratching, rubbing, and shaking their heads vigorously. These actions can cause trauma to the affected ears, as they often scratch with intensity and force, potentially leading to self-inflicted injuries. The trauma caused by scratching, rubbing, and shaking can aggravate the ear infection further, exacerbating the discomfort experienced by the dog. Additionally, these actions can potentially damage the delicate structures within the ear, including the ear drum. If the ear drum becomes injured or perforated, it not only intensifies the pain but also poses a risk to the overall health of the dog. To assess the condition of the ear drum and mitigate the potential risks associated with damaged ear drums, it is crucial to have a veterinarian perform an examination using specialized equipment like an otoscope. This device allows visualization of the ear canal and the ear drum, enabling the identification of any existing damage. It's important to note that if the ear drum is compromised, only a limited number of medications can be safely utilized without causing further harm. In cases of broken ear drums, both animals and humans can experience extreme pain and face potential complications. Therefore, it is of utmost importance to exercise caution and avoid using any inappropriate substances or medications in the ears of dogs, as it may jeopardize their well-being and even result in partial or complete deafness.
Using Vinegar as an ear cleaner for dogs may pose several potential risks. Firstly, it can lead to ear drum damage if the wrong substance is applied into the ear, potentially resulting in deafness. Therefore, it is crucial to ensure the dog's ear drum is healthy before using any cleaner. Furthermore, Vinegar can be problematic if the dog has cuts in their ears from scratching. As their ears are already sore and inflamed due to infections, adding Vinegar, whether diluted or not, can cause additional pain and discomfort. Another concerning risk is that Vinegar, whether used alone or with water, actually adds moisture to the ear instead of drying it. This creates a perfect breeding ground for bacteria or yeast to multiply. Unlike commercial ear cleaners specifically designed to dry excess moisture, Vinegar may unintentionally promote the growth of harmful microorganisms. It is essential to be aware of these potential risks and consider alternative options for dog ear cleaning to avoid any adverse effects on their health.
