| By 12 weeks Madison's ears were up, except the tip on one ear bent down. She is 17 weeks now, and both ears have been straight up for a couple weeks now.

| I had a pup who's ears stood at 5 weeks and one that went up right about the 12 week mark. I did tape her ears to help but they eventually came up.

YT Addict | Pebbles one ear stood up at about 10 weeks, but the other one did not, so I went to a groomer and had her ears shaved half way down and within two days the other ear came up. she is now 12 weeks and her ears are up strait. |

| Piper's ears were up by 12 weeks. They seemed to just pop up over night. One day they were down and the next they were standing tall.

| Ears up Zipper's ears stood up at 16 weeks and Daisy's ears stood up at age 7 years. I guess she stands them up when there is a very strange noise any keeps them 1/2 standing when she isn''t alert. |

| Is it always necessary to tape ears to get them to stand up? We have 5 week old puppies and I am not sure if I am supposed to tape or leave nature to its own course. I am going to get a trimmer for their little feet because I can no longer see their nails, and it wouldnt hurt to get them used to the sound and feel of clippers I suppose, but I dont want to tape if it isnt necessary. (I am a first timer with yorkie pups) The babies are getting so big now, so much more like little dogs, just want to do everything on the right timetable.
