By then it was too late for us to shave his ears or tape them, but it has become part of his character. And he's perfect! But when I got my other yorkie I did go to the groomer every other week to get the ears tipped. I would go in and ask the groomer to ONLY tip the ears while I waited and the groomer charged $5.00 for this service.
Good Luck! |
Hi, this is incredibly easy to do yourself! Just go to Sally's (much cheaper than the pet stores) get a hair trimmer and just trim (shave) the tip about 1 inch down and save gas, time and money!
