The one I use cost less than $20 and I've been using it to trim feet and ears for two years now. I finally bought a full size set of clippers for complete grooming but still use the small set for ears.
Thanks for the advice, I did go out and buy a small shaver and his ears are much neater now! He still doesn't like sitting still, but I think he's more comfortable with the shaver than the scissors too, so that's good.
We only had to tape Scooter's ears for 1 night, and now they are both standing, and I still think he's as cute as ever!
Thanks for everyone's advice!
