To help little Dilly heal, owner and Reddit user Jslowb fashioned a doggie 'bonnet' and posted a photo to the site.

In the Reddit comments, Jslowb explained the reason for the bonnet. 

While we want Dilly to get well soon, we also can't help but hold out hope that his bonnet becomes a daily style choice regardless of any ear-related ailments.

Mashable has reached out to Jslowb for comment.
