I ♥ Joey & Ralphie! Donating Member | Baby oil? Or probably, good old vegetable oil. How are the ears doing?

| I have never heard of using eyelash glue to get our babies ears to stand up.. The only advice I can give is go see a groomer or vet and see if they can remove it.. |

I ♥ Joey & Ralphie! Donating Member | I would just "paint" the baby oil or vegetable oil on over the moleskin. Let it set a few minutes before you try to remove. Cute Pics, kind of looks like they're getting ready for Halloween!

| I would never use MOLEskin or glue on my babies ears. Masking tape works just fine. i can't imagine a breeder telling you that. As far as getting it off, I have no idea. Sorry. Last edited by Sugar's Mom; 03-10-2008 at 01:56 PM. |

| I have used moleskin when I first started in Yorkies. This was recommended by a few breeders so I tried it. It worked fine, but I liked masking tape better. I have never used eyelash glue though. I have used canvas glue to stand Skye Terrier ears up. It would not come out period! Over time it finally just worked its way off the hair with baths and brushing. I wonder if finger nail polish remover works? Or maybe Energine solvent remover? what is used to take it off humans? Maybe that will work. good luck!!! |

| wow.. looks like you've gotten yourself into a bit of a pickle there. All I can suggest is a trip to the nearest drug store and get whatever it is that they use to remove false eyelashes. Eileen |

| I've never used eyelash glue, even on me, but I would assume babyoil, like Nancy1999 already suggested.

| My breeder put eye lash glue on my baby before we took her home but she used card stock paper to hold the ears up. We used baby oil to get it off... I hated it because it was hard to get off. I liked cloth medical tape. it came off easily and the ears were up in a week.

| OKIE DOKIE,, I got it all off,, Trixie is back to normal now, i got baby oil,, (had to buy a big bottle,, couldnt find a small one),, so now we're set with baby oil ,, forever!! LOL,, but ,, it got the job done,, came home,, soaked the moleskin down with the baby oil,, got one ear done in just a minute,, the other i had to soak with more baby oil and let set a while,, and slowly rubbed the oil and ear for about 20 minutes easing it all off,, so, ,its a done deal!,, now we'll hafta do a bath here in just a bit,, to get all the oil off of her,, but she surely smells good!! and BTW,, her ear leather looks fine,, not red,, no damage done,, but live and learn,, for me and mine, ,NO moleskin and eyelash glue is NOT a good idea,even though it was advise i received here on YT from breeders,, maybe they just used WAY WAY less glue,, but , its all good,, thanks to all for ideas and well wishes,, we're all good here now!
