WOW and I consider myself smart!!!!  I noticed Sherman has not been sleeping well which translates into none of us have been sleeping as he has been scratching his ears madly and moaning all night long. I took him to the vet AGAIN for ear issues and imagine how stupid I felt when the vet asked me how come I didnt pull the hair from his ears after the last time he was there with ear problems  ? Ummmmm because I did not really think 3 people who were respected professionals especially with yorkies all REALLY wanted me to rip the hair out of his ears  Thanks to my blond roots (that is what I am blaming this on) My SWEET precious adoreable love bug has a NASTY ear infection in BOTH ears .
A lesson for me is if I dont think people mean what they say or I think it seems drastic then I need to ask for clarification. I am soooooo sorry my boy has to go through this and will make sure he never has to go through this type of thing due to my negligence again!!! Just thought I would share incase someone else can learn from my mistake! |
aweee.e.....when i used to be a grooming assistant i LOVED plucking ear hair! you gotta get a power to loosen up the ear hair, and we would use a hemostat to grab all that extra hair out of the ear canal! i would really tell you to use a vet/groomer, if you don't know how to do it properly! lol
