Default How often do you clean your dogs ears?

Hiya all

After talking to my friend who owns a cocker spaniel that is very prone to ear infections I was wondering how often you all cleaned your GSDs ears and if you you use a specific cleaner??

I have never had ear troubles with my dogs *knockonwood* so i have never actually cleaned their ears particularly thoroughly. If i notice there's a bit of black waxy stuff visible when just looking in I'll get a tissue and wipe it out.
But I have never considered buying an ear cleaner etc.
My dogs do do swimming a lot so i was a bit concerned by water getting in their ears but it doesn't seem to have been a problem so far.

Any comments or suggestions are appreciated
