Pam,

I really don't know on the alcohol question, but I doubt whether there's 
alcohol involved in the baby wipes I've got. I've got some Sainsbury's Little 
Ones (yuk!) and some Pampers Sensitive. What an advanced household this is!  
Both claim to be fragrance free, though I could swear they smell quite nice, 
actually. Maybe it's the dog that smells nice when I've removed any clag from 
his coat and ears. I can't imagine you'd put alcohol on a new baby's skin, 
somehow, so I'll assume the answer is no.

thanks for that vince. she doesn't have an infection or anything like that so 
i'd just b using them as part of her grooming. any idea if the baby wipes u use 
r alcohol free? i think maybe there's alcohol in some of the ear cleaners 
anyway but i'm not entirely sure. thanks.

Pam,

I use baby wipes occasionally on Zym's ears as part of ordinary grooming, but 
if the dog's ears are really smelly, I'd suspect a yeast infection and get 
something from the vet. I have got some doggy wipes, too, which are supposed to 
be hypo-allergenic, and they might be worth it if your dog has sensitive skin.

Vince.

hi all. have any of u ever used those ear wipes for dogs? i'm finding it 
impossible to use the cleaning solution on callie as soon as she sees the 
bottle she runs so it's impossible to do it on my own. she doesn't mind them 
being wiped out so i was thinking of trying the ear wipes but r they good? also 
i read on the net that u can use baby wipes to clean dogs ears. is this true or 
am i better off getting the ones formulated for dogs? thanks for any advice.
