When Cassie was about 3 months old and we had been to the vet. I asked him if the hair in the ears had to be pulled out of a Yorkie. He told me that Yorkie s are not the same as poodles and he would not pull out the hair unless there was a problem. After reading some of the posts and hearing that some of you do it and also was worried about these ear mites. Never heard of them!! Is this what happens if you do not pull hair out
