Murphy has been shaking his head a lot. He love love loves getting ear scratches so at first I thought the he just wanted them scratched and was trying to be cute. Then I thought he had something in there so I looked and wiped them out with q-tips but I couldn't find anything (anything unusual that is....there was plenty of dirt). So finally I trimmed some of his ear fur in his left ear because I thought maybe it was tickling him and making him shake like that. This worked for a little while but his head shaking is starting back up again and I need some suggestions on other stuff to look for. I don't really like trimming his ear fur because I think it blocks a lot of stuff from getting in there (I've been checking the one I trimmed for buildup) so I need some advice. He doesn't have ear mites and his ears look really healthy. He does get some dirt in there but that's because he goes tearing around the back yard, which has no grass, like a crazy dog.
