Caspers flicking his ear...


Caspers have been flicking his ear for about 2 weeks, if I rub his ear, he flicks then shakes his head...He was at the vets on Friday for his booster and she said his ears were spotless, and could see nothing in them....Anyone any idea why he is doing this?

Do you think the vet might of missed something? I would take him back again for a more indepth look.

Might be a blimmin grass seed at this time of year? It might find its way out naturally but if he appears distressed it would be worth having another look with the vet's instrument/light?

Mine tend to do that when you mess with their ears anyway. However, if it's not normal behaviour for Casper I would get the vet to have a quick look - it'll put your mind at rest if nothing else.

The vet used the instrument with the light on it, she gave his ear a good going over, but found nothing..
