Oh, no, not again! Unfortunately, Wen discovered that Sadie had another ear hematoma the other day. This time she wasn’t shaking her head or scratching at her ear like she had the two previous times, so there was no obvious warning.
Sadie had looked perfectly normal early that morning, but several hours later, Wen caught her slinking across the living room floor with her tail tucked, as if she had done something wrong and when she picked up Sadie, Sadie let out a scream. Not only did she feel as if she had a fever, but her left ear had filled up with blood, so off to the vet they went.
Dr. Nina repaired Sadie’s ear hematoma and she was back home in three hours with her head wrapped and wearing a cone. Hopefully her ear will heal without any issues and this will be the last hematoma she gets, but it will take many weeks to heal. It’s too bad that Sadie is susceptible to those darn allergies that are responsible for itchy ear infections that make dogs shake their heads. It’s even worse that this is the third ear hematoma that she’s had! Poor Sadie!
