| What are the ears supposed to look like? I groom chloe myself and I dont know exactly where I should trim the ear hair. I was doing just the very tips but she always seems to have "fuzzy" looking ears. How far down should I trim? Can someone give me a picture? Thanks

| ears Linda, you did a good job...try cutting the edges so they will be perfectly even...if you are worried about cutting the skin, wet the hair and hold you fingers against the edge, you can see it better. |

| Shave the ear 1/3 down on both sides. Hold the ear between your fingers (like Pat said) and trim the sides close and straight.

| OKay I think I did a little more than a 1/3 down. Here is a picture I just took, how does she look? She still has some hair that sticks straight up, should I trim that? Its on the insides part of her ear like the part closest to the barrette.
