I found it very hard to cut the ear outline with a scissors, and if you make a mistake, ears bleed readily, so in between trips to the groomer I use this little clipper on his ears. http://media.cymaxstores.com/Images/1366/167837-SM2.jpg. You can find it at Target for less than $10.00, and you never have to worry about cutting them. They trim the tips perfectly!
thanks what dept do you get that at as i like that better than the one i have that is great -- the breeder kept getting on me when dd ears flopped to tape them up so we did so i just learned alot thanks as never knew about the calcium aspect - My poor dd looked like an alien yorkie lolllll and dex was not impressed - here are before and after shots loll

DJ IS ADORABLE
