Dog ear infections love to come back, and the key is catching them early and finishing the treatment. PetHealthLog lets you log ear drops and cleanings, note which ear and how it looks, and see the pattern over time - so recurring trouble is obvious and your vet gets a clear history. Free, no account, works offline.
Start tracking - it's freeEar infections are one of the most common reasons dogs see the vet, and for some dogs - especially floppy-eared breeds or those with allergies - they keep coming back. The trouble is that each episode feels separate, so the pattern that would tell you (and your vet) something is going on gets lost.
On top of that, ear treatment only works if the drops are given consistently and the full course is finished, even after the dog seems better. A few missed days or stopping early is how a half-treated infection flares back up.
PetHealthLog is free, needs no account and works offline, so logging a treatment and a quick note on how the ear looks builds the history that turns scattered episodes into a clear picture.
Add each treatment by name and schedule, and tick it as you do it - so the full course actually gets finished, not abandoned when the dog perks up.
Note which ear, and how it looks or smells day to day, so a one-off and a recurring problem are easy to tell apart.
Because every episode lands on one timeline, a pattern of repeat infections becomes obvious - the kind of clue a vet uses to look for an underlying cause like allergies.
Keep vet visits and the ear history on the same private timeline.
Export a clean record of treatments and flare-ups, so a recurring-ear-infection conversation starts from real data.
If your vet recommends supporting ear care at home, these are common options. Medicated drops for an active infection should come from your vet; match everything to their advice.
