Today we went swimming at my parents house. Fletcher loves to swim and has no issues wearing his life jacket. Well we have had a lot of rain lately and more is expected this weekend so the pool was full past where is should be kept. So I needed to drain water. The drain hose not like a regular garden hose its made out of the same stuff as the pool liner anyway when you drain water the hose end will sometime flip around like wild snake. Its pretty funny normally the kids scream and the dogs bark at it. Well today for the first time Fletcher tried to attack it, he was having a good old time jumping around biting the water. The water comes out pretty fast it so after a minute I went to turn it off well about that time Fletcher somehow took a good hose full in the face!!!! He jumped back and yelped, I ran to turn the water off. He came right to me I dried his face and EARS off then he went back to swimming with us. But ever since then he has been stopping and shaking his head. I got some cotton balls and re-dried inside his ears but he's acting like he has water in them or something. He ate dinner fine when we got home and he's playing like normal just shaking his head like he's shaking water off. I know I should watch for signs of infection which I do anyway since he swims so much but if the head shaking continues should I be calling the vet?? And if so how long should I give it? He is not scratching at them which I think is a good thing??? But I don't know.
Thanks in advance!
