You do not have the pup yet, right, since she is only 6 weeks old and should still be with the breeder till she is 12 weeks of age. The breeder should know about the ears and to keep them shaved and taped - at about 7 weeks of age.

Here is a photo of one of my pups at 5 weeks of age and then the 2nd photo of one at about 8 weeks. You can see how the hair is off the ears in the first one and then only hair at the bottom of the ears in the 2nd photo. I hope they help. There are some sites out there that show how to tape the ears.
Beautiful puppies!
