Abstract

Thepresent case study reports otitis infection in a 2 year old cross bred dog. The affected dog showed symptoms of serous discharges from the ear with foul odour, slight elevation in temperature and shaking its head at regular intervals. Isolation studies on Sabrouds dextrose agar revealed finger foot print yeast cells characteristic of Malassezia organisms and a few bunches of grapes characteristic of Staphylococcus bacteria. On ABST examination, the culture was highly sensitive for chloramphenicol and Sulpha trimethoprim.
