It looks like Scully could have an ear infection. She will need to see a vet for this, and I would take her and her puppies into the vet first thing in the morning. The vet can confirm she does have an ear infection, what's causing it (ear mites, yeast, or bacteria), and can prescribe treatment for her. Best of luck.
