When I got Buzz @ 4mo., his ears were, completely, full of thick hair! On his vet check, the tech took some kind of scissors and grabbed the whole bunch and twirled it around 'till it was all tight and pulled it out...OMG'sh, that poor baby screamed, and then he had to go through it, again, w/the other ear I ask if he would always have to have this done, and they said yes...HOWEVER, he is now one year and 8 months old, and it didn't grow back! I think they killed the roots, when they pulled it out...Maybe ask your vet if a tech, there, might be familiar w/this procedure...
