For cases in which a parallel citation to a public domain source is required, short citation forms take a slightly different form. A parallel citation to the Northwestern Reporter is included, but only to the first page of the opinion because the paragraph number is found in both sources.
What Causes Ear Infections in Dogs? The structure of the canine ear canal, which is more vertical than that of humans and has an L shape, that tends to hold in fluid. This makes dogs prone to ear problems. Some of the most common causes include: bacteria. yeast/fungus (aspergillosis) moisture (which can create a prime growing environment for bacteria and yeast) viruses. mites (more common in puppies than in adults) drug reactions.
An ear infection is an inflammation of the middle ear, usually caused by bacteria, that occurs when fluid builds up behind the eardrum. Anyone can get an ear infection, but children get them more often than adults. Five out of six children will have at least one ear infection by their third birthday. In fact, ear infections are the most common reason parents bring their child to a doctor. The scientific name for an ear infection is otitis media (OM).
