Why it matters
Cleaning and checking both ears at every visit helps catch problems early. It matters most for floppy-eared breeds (Cocker Spaniels, Basset Hounds) whose ear shape traps moisture and makes infections more common.
Frequently asked questions
Which dogs need ear cleaning most at every grooming visit?+

Watch for head shaking, scratching at the ears, or odor - those are worth a vet visit, not just a wait until the next groom, especially for floppy-eared breeds prone to trapped moisture.
