Didn't think of that, as I have never had that prob with ear drops.

Vet said it is the ear infection drops causing the grease, he is spreading it when grooming. He had it on his feet.

there is also a dry shampoo you can get from Chapel House which you rub in and brush out. If it is anything like the cornflour my sister used to use to save washing her long hair, then it should work well ...

Yeah, the last two males that I have had neutered as adults have had fur issues, one was dry and one was greasy. The vet will be able to tell you if it is anything more.

Really, didn't know that, have some baby wipes in that I used for Dragan. Will give it a shot. He's back at the vet's this morning for his post op check.

IT will be due to him only just being neutered Chrissie, you can use baby wipes to help - the last male I had neutered as an adult took about 4 weeks to stop having greasy fur.

Does Charlie have any skin problems? Or flea allergy? If not, perhaps you can get some kind of powder to dry up the grease. Maybe ask your vet.

Charlie's fur seems greasy. Any clues? Any remedies? I know I can rely on you lovely lot to come up with something to help.
