Malacetic products were recommended by Karma's veterinarian. I also purchased the ear wipes (which I use more frequently.) I have not used the cleanser yet, but I suspect that, given my trust in my puppy's Vet, that it is the best product available...

It is exactly the medication the vet gave me and exactly what I needed.

You only had it available in the larger bottle. I would have preferred the smaller bottle but your website showed it was out of stock.

Fast Delivery for My Fur Baby

Malacetic is a great product for keeping my dog’s ears clean and fresh. Proactive cleaning helps keep infections away, and I’m glad it was delivered so quickly.
