In May 2020, Penny was prescribed a common medication for an ear infection. Penny had an extremely rare but very serious ototoxicity reaction.
One day I noticed she slept through the mailman visit. Then she didn’t greet me at the door when I got home the next day.
I turned to my Dog Health Journal and made the connection between her starting the ear medicine and the fact that she wasn’t acting like herself.
I called our veterinarian and they told me to immediately stop using the medication due to this unusual reaction.
