What is the ear fur of a sheepdog like?

The shape and color of a sheepdog’s ear fur can vary between breeds. Generally, though, the ear hair is long and soft, covering the inside and surrounding area of the ear.

The ear fur usually matches the body coat color, such as black, brown, or white. Its length and shape can be controlled through trimming and brushing to keep the dog clean and healthy.

For long-haired breeds like sheepdogs, owners can use a pin comb daily or every other day to brush the coat and prevent matting.
