It is a controversial topic whether it is alright to pluck the hair in the cat’s ear canals. On one hand, some pet groomers say that dogs get ear infections when the hair is plucked. But other groomers say that plucking the hair does not cause any infection.
If the dog has an ear infection, plucking the hair can help the ear to become moist. Also, it will be easier to pour the medication into the ear. The medication goes through the ear canal easily.
However, if the dog is not suffering from any infections, then there is no need to pluck the hair in the ears. It is perfectly okay to keep the hair especially when the ear is already well-trimmed or when it does not block the ear canal.
If you are bothered by the presence of hair in the ear canal, then you can visit the vet. You can ask what options you have in managing the hair in the ear canal.
Any sign of an ear problem exhibited by your pet should warrant a visit to your animal hospital Carmel Valley. More information at this website Santaluz Animal Care Clinic.
