Some breeds of dogs, such as Teddy and Schnauzer, are born with ear hairs in their ear canals. If not cleaned for a long time, it will not only harbor dirt and breed bacteria and ear mites in the dog's ears, but will also affect the dog's hearing.

Item preparation:

Medical cotton (or cotton swabs), medical hemostatic forceps, ear hair removal powder

Steps for plucking ear hair:

1. Soothe your dog and let it lie on its side obediently on your lap or anywhere it feels comfortable.

2. Pour a small amount of ear hair removal powder into the dog's ears, and gently rub the ears to evenly cover the auricle. The dog will feel very comfortable at this time.

3. Use a hemostat to clamp the small ear hair and quickly pull it out with a force and speed that the dog will not feel pain or sensitivity.

4. After most of the ear hairs are pulled out, the remaining soft hairs can be pulled out directly with your hands.

5. Finally, wrap the cotton piece around the hemostatic forceps and dip it in ear cleaning oil to wipe the ears clean.

Note:

Ear powder cannot have an analgesic effect, so the ear hair should be pulled out quickly and not too much at one time to avoid causing pain to the dog.
