Middle Ear: The middle ear consists of a continuation of the tubular canal. Also, three different membranes, called the tympanic membranes are also included in the middle ear. These membranes are also called “ear drums”. The middle ear also communicates with the pharynx and larynx in the throat through auditory tubes, which maintains the pressure of sounds released by the dog. Three auditory ossicles or bones also exist in the middle ear, which helps in the amplification of different sounds delivered to the ear drums. Similarly, attachments and movements of muscles in the middle ear control sound pitch, thus loud and sharp sounds are damped before ending up at the ear drums.
