It is better to do this instead of wait and chance your baby getting sick, which would you rather a few minutes of inconvience or days of anitbiotics, oral, and ear, and a wash to top it off, trust me, went through it, so not fun!!!

OMG! Marlee I never knew that!! thank you for this information! I will talk to my groomer about this, I had never had tillys ears plucked and never was told by vet or groomer about ear infections in regards to plucking. Im so glad tilly escaped that ordeal, and Im sorry to hear you had to find out with your baby in pain..
