I'm sorry meandbeau but what you described is not something normal, and without examining a dog we have no idea what you exactly telling us! bad ears? that could be alot of things!
As has been suggest go and see a vet, if they don't know ask to be refered to someone who might know.
Unfortantly even with some ideas even if I were a vet I could not say them. Faulse diagnositics could be extreamly dangerous!
Good luck at the vets. A professional opinion is always the best even if it costs alot of money, at the end of the day our pets are worth it!
