| Has anyone ever had this happen to them. I got Toby groomed today. I thought everything went fine with his grooming, but when I took him to the vet for a checkup today she said the groomer made a major mistake. He did not pull the hairs out of Tobys ears or even clean them. He instead took the hair in Tobys ears and clipped them with scissors which left a big plug of hair in Tobys ears. The vet said this could have lead to two major ear infections. She told me I should look for a new groomer for next time. She also said it did not appear that Toby was even bathed. Has this ever happened to anyone else? |

| No I have never had this happen. Thank goodness. Have you been using this same groomer? Maybe someone will have more experience with this. I am blessed with a great groomer and have never had issues with her at all. I hope you can get it worked out.

| Any groomer that I've been to plucks the hair, some better than others. You should do as your vet says and find a new groomer if possible. Yorkies really do have sensitive ears. My Max is fighting an ear infection now

| He's a tough pup. I knew he was scratching his ears a lot but I didn't think that much. When the groomer, this past Monday plucked his ear hair she said a bunch of black gunk came out too! He already had a vet appointment for the following day. He's doing much better.
