Okay, I just shaved my 9 week old female, Abigail this morning! I used a Pet Clipper and I did the insides the outsides and around the edges. Her ears are a little bit too big for her head at the moment. When I got Artie he was 20 weeks old and his ears were already standing, but I did his ears and trim around his foot pads. They both go to the Groomer's every 2 weeks to get a "Sanitary Shave" (their private parts) and their nails clipped. I get too nervous doing those areas.
Both my Breeder's started grooming them at an early age! And if it wasn't for them starting them I would not be able to do it myself? You just have to do it while they are tired and trying to fall asleep, otherwise they will wiggle around, but they do get used to it. Now they both fall asleep while I'm shaving them......buzzing sound in their ears?
I don't have the heart to pluck the inside of their ear canals, so I have that done at the Vets. Clinic they don't charge me for it.
