I'd definitely be consulting with a specialist before having my dog undergo this sort of surgery. I'd also be concerned about the cause of the yeast infections...the narrow canals may make it difficult to clear up but I'd want to know what's causing it in the first place. What are you feeding Lib, TripleL24? And what sort of meds have you already tried with her? Has the vet done a culture of her ears? Are you using a cleanser in addition to meds? Does she have any allergy-type symptoms? How is her skin, fur, paw pads? Is she often itchy?
