Yorktese Puppy Success
I want to thank everyone for the advice and encouragement I received
regarding housebreaking my pup. I decided to go the old fashioned way and started bringing him outside and he has not had an accident in the house for 2 days. I know that accidents will still occurbut this is a giant leap. I 2 have morequestions. He ofcourse has not had any formal training should I try at home or bring him to puppy school. He is 4 months old.. The last is concerning grooming and his ears. When he went to the vet last week it was discovered that he had an ear infection and was put on drops. I am taking him next Friday for his first grooming and vet suggested he get his ears plucked . What is your opinion? |

What is your opinion? I have poodles and they get their ears plucked frequently. They don't mind it at all but that's because I did it for short periods of time at first. That way, they don't squirm and learn to sit still. Of course, give lots of praise and treats (or your choice of reward) so they will see the ear cleaning as a good thing. |
