I don't know much about growing blueberry bushes, just picking the blueberries! I would think you just go at them with clippers and shape them up like you want them. However, what about when do the berries form, etc? You might have to wait until they bloom and bear again. Check with your local Agricultural Commission for best results.
This should help you.

Hello! If that bear came to your door to eat your blueberries it means there was not enough food/calories to sustain him in the wild. You can be sure he will be back now that he views your bushes as a source of food. Forewarned is forearmed! If the bear becomes a nuisance, you might want to consider a preventive measure, such as an electric fence or other deterrent. Good luck!
