A dog will constantly be scratching its ear. Also, if you take a tissue and rub it in its ear, and foul smelling browny-red gunk comes out, then an ear infection is likely. The only sure fire way is to take the dog to a vet.
How often and how much to take for an ear infection
You should give the dog whatever the vet perscribes you when you take it there to get its ears checked.
A person can give their dog Minocycline if they have an ear infection. Before giving the dog the medication, a veterinarian should be consulted to determine the dosage amount and for the actual prescription.
Usually if a rabbit has an ear infection, it has had some sort of cold. Unless you are talking about an infection from a scratch. They can scratch their ear and it can become (the scratch itself) infected, treatment would include some sort of antibiotic ointment for the scratch. Treatment for the ear infection caused by a cold would include antibiotic shots and ear drops.
Examine your dogs ear. If there is a waxy substance, clean the ear with water and cotton wool twice a day. If it doesn't clear up in 7 days, contact your Vet. If the ear smells make a vet appointment as its a infection.

No, and putting hot water in your ear can damage your ear. It can cause burns and blisters inside the ear. To get rid of an ear infection, you need a prescription antibiotic (usually ear drops) from a physician.

The ear lobe will be red and sore, and there may be discoloration around the piercing. Cleaning the ear and earrings with mild antiseptic may provide relief, and if not, your doctor may prescribe antibiotic creams to treat the infection.
