    Almond Oil schould do it. 3-4 drops in each ear and make sure its warm. Flush it out w. a very weak salt and water solution.

    As Ann said two to three drops of Almond oil in each ear should do the trick .....

    try putting warm sweet oil in their ears. You can buy it at the drugstore.

    brignac

    i have vit e oil here and almond oil, i dont have a way to the drugstore and i live way out if i can i need to use sthing i have here

    maybe u could flap the dogs ears up then put olive oil & water  under his ears , then give him a bath.

    Why would you use antibiotics to remove ear wax?  Maybe using antibiotics for everything is not a good idea.  This contributes to organisms becoming immune to antibiotics, thus they become less effective when it is an appropriate time to use them.  Playing doctor can be a can of worms.  Using alternate methods, mineral oils, alcohol, etc. would be more successful.  Keep the ears trimmed of excessive hair also helps, as the ears dry out better, and are less apt to host mites.  Do not clean the ears too often, however, as they are like ours in that they should have some wax in them, it helps prevent materials from entering the canal, it is sticky, and is meant to trap debris.
