Does anyone have any suggestions about making it easier on a Yorkie pup to trim their ears? I really want Bentley's ears to stand. One was upright when he first came home but it has since flopped like its partner. Guessing it is from teething.

I bought a great Whal trimmer from Amazon for a fantastic price. It's not loud. Nice little hum. I decided since we were visiting the grand-humans today I would have my mom help me. Bentley would have nothing to do with it at all. I started the trimmer with him outside the room and had my mom then bring him in so he was not shocked by the little snap all trimmers make when started. But no way. We tried different ways. Standing on the counter with holding secure but not tight. On shoulder. Mom holding, me holding. But could not even get close. And yes I choose a time of day when he was his sleepy and zen self.

I so desperately want his ears to stand and I'm afraid if I can't get those ears trimmed we will have issues.

Thanks for any suggestions. Also if I'm way off base about needing to trim them let me know too. I'm just really close to getting a hold of one of the local groomers to just trim his ears.
