I have just today learned that I should pluck my yorkies ear hairs? & use this ear powder? . . . does the powder make it less painful for them? or is just solely to help grip the hair? ....i gotta tell ya. she is usually a REALLY good girl for grooming but this plucking thing, I may see a whole other side of her. she has had two ear infections already in the last 2.5 years that we have had her. i didn't know that the canal hairs harbored or could anyway bacteria. also does the ear powder help losen the hairs? I think this is the part of grooming I will least enjoy. (shiver).
