[nagdu] Noticing medical issues?

[Jewel]

I noticed Faye's ear infection because she kept scratching it all the time and her ear smelled wrong. Also, I cleaned her ears and the infected one gave off dark stuff, while the other ear didn't and smelled fine, like a dog should. 
Infected eyes give off discolored junk and the dog is constantly rubbing their face on the floor. 
I think I got it right... Please correct me if I am wrong!

I lightly wiped her face and the water is gone, did not return.
