All of this information is so helpful! I think Princess Sophie has a lot of ear hair and it will need plucking. I have also noticed her scratching her ears and one evening a few days ago, I thought one of them looked red from her scratching at it. I will be doing a more extensive inspection of her ears today and begin the process of plucking those hairs. The last thing I want is for her to have an ear infection.
Thank you all again, your advice is most valued!!
