It's probably an ear infection, often it cannot be seen from the outside. Ear infections are very common in dogs, it is usually caused by either yeast or bacterial disease. the treatment is usually simple and straightforward, you will have to take Peppa to the vet and get the ears checked, then a prescription ear drops will be prescribed according to the infectious agent.
