one of my regular clients (shih tzu)was asking about ear plucking the other day. as i don't do it on every groom (2wks) only as needed (IMO). well, her OLD groomer told her that a dog will go crazy if you don't pluck their ears! (I don't believe it for a second) and one of the reasons she stopped using her was because everytime she picked her up her ears were bleeding, and she eventually got an infection.
i told her that the ear thing was way off and her trainer rolled her eyes when she asked her. she swore though that the dog had been acting strange, chewing things and running around (never seen a dog do that). then assured me that i would be 'grooming a different dog' since she had cleaned her ears (didn't happen).
anyways, i want to take a poll:
who belives dogs go crazy if they don't get their ears plucked
why does this lady still believe the bloody ear groomer but not me or her trainer?
