| Eras hair Hello I need to verify something with you specialists on toileting yorks. Is it true that we have to cut hairs on the ears of our furbabies because the ears will fall down? I just can't believe that's true. We have to start this very early beacause that the cause of the ears falling down.

Donating YT 30K Club Member | You need to shave the tips of their ears about 1/3 of he way down tp get the weight off the ear leather. Some dogs ears will stand up even with hair , some don't. I always use a clipper and trim the hair off every month or so. I like the way it looks too,
