Dog ear infection article and administering drops

Dog ear infections commonly recur.  People often blame this on antibiotic resistance or problems with their vet, but the main causes are actually failure to ensure the ear is clean (and stays clean afterward) and failure by owners to put ear drops in the correct location.  The wikipedia article on dog ear infections has this useful image describing where to put ear drops when medicating your dogs ear.
