My Dogs Have the Cleanest Ears, Thanks to Lilah

Lilah makes sure everyone's ears are clean.

Lilah makes sure everyone’s ears are clean.

It’s one of the ways she shows her love, my Lilah. She cleans ears.

She’ll start with one of Tucker or Jasper’s ears, then move to the other. Nothing halfway for Dr. Lilah. 

The boys stand or sit or lie patiently, often with eyes half closed as their sister attends to them.

It almost looks like she’s whispering to them, telling them secrets shared among dogs.

It’s an intimate moment of caring, and one that touches me every time. 

Afterwards, a nuzzle and a wag of thanks, and everyone’s off to chase sticks or bark at squirrels.

How do your pets show they care for each other?

    Dogs Luv Us and We Luv Them

  4. It just goes to show how much they care about each other. It’s really nice of her to groom them in the places they couldn’t reach alone. On the other hand it might be a yummy treat for her.

    • It’s true. Lilah has always been the one who tells me if something is wrong with the other dogs. She keeps their ears clean, and sniffs them when someone is hurt or not feeling well. She cares about them all.
