| ears!!!! hey everyone, so i'm super excited and thought ya'll might be the only ones who maybe care haha anyway, toby is 11 weeks today and it looked like his ears *wanted* to stand up but couldnt quite get there. I was too scared to use clippers on him b/c he freaks out with some noises, so I used the scissors and cut off a bunch of hair from the top half of his ears, annnnnnnnd one stood up!! the other one is like half up. I'm so excited, lol cutest thing ever!!!!! He is sleeping now but I will try to get a picture soon!! |

| I remember that happy feeling. I use to gently pull on Gracie Ruth's ears and tell her, "Like this Gracie, make your ears do like this." DH told me I better stop or I'd stretch them all out of shape. I tried it with Yogi but as soon as I'd start he would just look up and give me a kiss, trying to distract me. It usually worked and at 10 months we are still fighting with lazy ears sometimes. I'm sure it has nothing to do with the fact that he has so much hair and his ears get weighed down.

| Yay!!! I would be excited too!! I get Delilah on Friday and I'm already obsessing over getting her ears to stand up. Teresa - I think I've said it before but I have to say it again because I'm reminded of it every time I see a picture of your dogs. They are two of the cutest EVER!!!! Perfect coloring!

Donating YT 500 Club Member | Tampon applicator and surgical tape..... I had the same problem with Jonah's ears. One was up and the other was not. I remembered something my dad used to say: he said take an empty cardboard applicator and put it in the ear and wrap surgical tape around it so that it stands up.....It worked! After about 24 hours it was done!!!!! They both stand up. I tried clipping the hair and it didn't work but the applicator does!!!!!!!!!!! Maybe try it on the ear still a little bit down.... |
