Pezz Ear Test

With the Pezz Ear Test, you can identify the cause of itchy, smelly, or painful ears in your dog or cat—right from home. The sample is evaluated cytologically (under a microscope) and reveals whether, for example, mites, bacteria, or yeast are involved. This allows you to work with your veterinarian to provide targeted treatment and prevent further damage.

When should you test?

• Rubbing the head or ears
• Shaking the head
• Red, moist, or swollen ears
• Foul-smelling ears or discharge
• Scaly earlobes
• Irritation or sensitive ears
• Hearing loss

What is being tested for?

• Epithelial cells (skin)
