Lizzet Posted September 15, 2017 Report Share Posted September 15, 2017 So my 9 month old husky got a bad case of ticks about 2 months ago and I had to start some medication that was given to me from the vet and it worked so well! It's been 2 months and I haven't found not even one. However, I started noticing this weird black mark inside both his ears and I don't know what it is.. I've tried getting a closer look and it doesn't seem like ticks or anything but I don't know what it is.. any ideas?

Markie Posted September 15, 2017 Report Share Posted September 15, 2017 It could be from flies. If I don't spray my huskies down on days that they are outside a lot the flies will eat up on their ears causing black spots the fur is gone from it. I put triple antibiotic on it and they go away or Dr. Harvey's healer for cats and dogs gone in a day or two :-):-)Sent from my Pixel using Husky Owners mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ARMANI & ALINAH Posted September 15, 2017 Report Share Posted September 15, 2017 Maybe it's caused due to the medicine your Vet gave you. I would call the Vet & tell them about the black spots inside the ears that won't come off & could it be remnants of the meds??~ANGIE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ARMANI & ALINAH Posted September 15, 2017 Report Share Posted September 15, 2017 @Markie ~ What do you mean with "spraying your dogs down," like with a hose? I was just curious.[emoji4] ~ANGIE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Markie Posted September 15, 2017 Report Share Posted September 15, 2017 With horse fly spray. I own horses also and they need it to keep the flies off of them. I use Bronco fly spray on my huskies along with my horses. I just spray it on their top coat and the flies leave them alone and it smells really good ;-):-)Sent from my Pixel using Husky Owners mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ARMANI & ALINAH Posted September 15, 2017 Report Share Posted September 15, 2017 Oh ok. Yeah, with horses, definitely more flies will be around. You probably have a farm.I brush mine & then love to spritz them w/the "Chi" smell good stuff on my babies! (They don't like it much; it interferes with their smell scent so they cannot INSPECT everything like they'd like too LOL!)🤗~ANGIE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Markie Posted September 15, 2017 Report Share Posted September 15, 2017 Yeah I do it's 40 Acres and they run in the barn when I am cleaning the horses. I brush them first then put it on it helps alot. Mine don't like the fragrance stuff that comes from PetSmart except the coconut milk lol :-):-)Sent from my Pixel using Husky Owners mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ARMANI & ALINAH Posted September 16, 2017 Report Share Posted September 16, 2017 That's awesome to have 40 acres! I don't get my stuff from PetSmart (just chew toys etc). I order the professional smell good stuff & some times get it from the ... LOVE the Almond/Vanilla ... smells so good! It's also a conditioner spray & makes them so soft & sweet.[emoji171]~ANGIE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Markie Posted September 16, 2017 Report Share Posted September 16, 2017 That conditioner spray is God's gift to us not that huskies smell bad but because they get so so soft. I have all of mine using that as part of the grooming time they just lay there. Maliki my oldest after I get done groomer her rolls over for me to do her stomach and give her a belly rub LOL [emoji23] They love the 40 Acres when it's winter they pull me on a sled it's so much fun :-) I don't know how many huskies you have but if you had two it would work perfect :-):-)Sent from my Pixel using Husky Owners mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ARMANI & ALINAH Posted September 16, 2017 Report Share Posted September 16, 2017 I've got ARMANI & ALINAH. They are sooo crazy & wild but very well trained. We've only had ALINAH 2mths & getting her used to everything. This winter, we may dabble in sled training in the snow just for fun. ARMANI learned some very light pull training but was still too young. Our backyard is pretty big but 40 acres would be better.🤗~ANGIE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Markie Posted September 16, 2017 Report Share Posted September 16, 2017 40 Acres kind of has some pros and cons longer distance good but I also have a higher chance of them seeing a bird and going crazy LOL :-):-) Good thing huskies learn fast!! They blend into things fast to!! Now I understand the names on your post on top lol :-):-)Sent from my Pixel using Husky Owners mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ARMANI & ALINAH Posted September 16, 2017 Report Share Posted September 16, 2017 ARMANI has caught 4 birds & probably more I don't know about. He'll jump 7feet in the air to catch one. I wish he wouldn't do that huhhh LOL!~ANGIE [emoji252]*WELCOME TO H.O. FORUM*[emoji252]~ANGIE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Markie Posted September 16, 2017 Report Share Posted September 16, 2017 All of mine do the same thing Duke caught a squirrel once Oh My Gosh I really didn't know what to do. He ate it.. I told him no and he has left them alone ever since. Winter caught a rabbit that was a bloody mess literally LOL [emoji23] Birds being their main target I had to move the bird feeders to the front of the barn and the house so they wouldn't get anymore :-):-)Sent from my Pixel using Husky Owners mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Markie Posted September 19, 2017 Report Share Posted September 19, 2017 Bronco fly spray and only on their top coat don't get it on their skin and it's okay :-):-) I would make sure to put the antibiotic ointment on the ears first then spray it on. The Bronco spray is for horses but it works wonderful on the huskies on top coat :-):-)Sent from my Pixel using Husky Owners mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
