I have an 8 week pup that I just brought home (less than 24 hours ago). His ears were cropped 8 days ago. The cup was apparently taken off yesterday before I got him. The right ear looks pretty good, left does not. See attached photos. These are this morning. I cleaned him yesterday - there was debris (grass and small plant debris) in the scabby incision. I have taped ears on 2 prior Danes, the first over ten years ago, and the second was a while ago also, and already healed when I got her.
Any advice on cleaning, whether to put a cup on prior to taping while it heals (and how to do it) will be greatly appreciated. I'm worried because the left ear is pretty inflamed (especially compared to the other ear). I also worry about scarring into a curled tip. Once they are healed and ready to tape, i know what to do. Thank you for any help you can give!
