I don't know why but I'm obsessing over whether or not I should trim the fur on Princess Bun Bun's ears - I know it's traditional to "Tip" the ears. I have an appointment tomorrow morning at 10 with the groomer.

My lil girl has rather LARGE ears and one is up and one is down. The "up one" looks funny trimmed - it's like a cone shape when her ear is up. It's weird looking and I don't like how her last "hair cut" turned out.

SO MY QUESTION TO YOU IS:
Do I give her a traditional Yorkie ear trim or leave them long or even grow them out to the length of her chin?

I don't mind that one ear is up and one is down, but I'm thinking it might draw even more attention to it. I don't want her to look dorky, but I do like cute.
