#53 What I Did When My Dog Got an Ear Infection

#53 What I Did When My Dog Got an Ear Infection

I’m sharing something personal: what I did when my own dog got his very first ear infection.

And honestly? For one day, I considered going the traditional route.

Even as a more holistic veterinarian, I had that moment of, “Should I just treat this the conventional way and move on?”

But instead, I paused. I slowed down.

And I chose to do exactly what I recommend my clients and pet parents do: trust the process.

Because an ear infection is rarely just about the ear.

In this episode, I walk you through my thought process, what I considered, how I supported him, and what ended up happening when I leaned into root-cause care rather than rushing straight to suppression.

In this episode, I talk about:
  • Why I didn’t immediately jump into traditional treatment
  • The importance of asking why the ear infection happened in the first place
  • How ear symptoms can be a sign the body needs deeper support
  • Why slowing down can be one of the most important parts of healing
  • How I used ozone and laser therapy to support his body
  • What I was watching for during the process
  • How I thought through comfort, inflammation, immune support, and the bigger picture
  • What happened after I chose to trust the process
