| Ears Won't Stand Up! My Micah is a gorgeous black and gold pup, but I can't get her ears to stand up for the life of me! She is 8 months old now, so it may be too late. I tried the tape when she was younger, but as soon as the tape came off, the ears went down. I also keep the top half of her ears shaved, so it's not because the weight of the hair. Any suggestions? |

| You might need to tape his ears again. I had to tape my dog's ears for three weeks until his ears stood up. I taped his ears every three days until they stood up on their own. |

| My Lil Bailey's is the same way; but she is only 14 weeks. However, I have noticed lately (bc her ears are shaved a little bit) that they are starting to stand up a little more. I had read taping and shaving the tips in another thread and so I tried it. I have been working with them....we shall see. Good luck!

| Try shaving a little more off of the ears. Meeko's ears were done for the longest time and then I trimmed them and they popped rite up. I never thought they'd go up because he's ears are kinda big for his head. Maybe just a little more will do the trick. I don't think 8 months is too old for them to stand. Good luck
