Hi all,
Our pup Hudson is now 11 weeks old and is growing a massive coat of hair at a fast rate. I have been doing daily grooming training with him to try and make it a pleasant experience. So far so good....feet, tail, belly no problem, face a little touchy yet but I am gaining his trust for this as well.
My question is in regards to ears. I know that I need to "pluck" his ear hair out, yet I know this might be painful and I do not want to ruin my "pleasant experience" training. Do any of you have any suggestions as to how to make this an easier task. I have even thought of "nose hair" people clippers.
The grooming books and videos say to use powder and "pluck away".If this is the only way, I will have to muster up courage to do it, but I wouldn't want some character pulling hair out of my ears !!
Thank you for any suggestions offered.
