My Darla is only 5 months. I took her to the groomer a month or so ago for the first time just for a shampoo to get her used to the environment. I live in a small town so I sat and visited with the groomer while she worked. I noticed she used a pair of hemostats to pull the hair out of her ears, all in one fell swoop. Darla didn't flinch. This woman has been grooming for well over 20 years, so I'm sure she has a great touch. Anyway, I don't know how often they do it as this was my first experience. I haven't messed with her ears or her mother's. Chloe's ears do not stand, so I don't think she has to worry as much about them getting dirty inside. |
