| Should I or Should I not So since zoey is a mix of things (yorkie chiwawa,maltese,lhasa apso) i guess her ears could stand (bec of the chiwawa n yorkie) however shes 15 weeks and her ears are not up...should i i tape them? the breeder suggested to cut the hair of the top of the ear and leave the hair the in the air and just massage it daily? anyway i could use opinions of you all think? |

| You can trim the hair on the ears to keep the weight off them. It makes it easier on the ear muscles. A lot of times when babies are teething, their ears fall. Most of the time (barring keeping the weight off of them (with Yorkies it's cutting the top third), its a genetic thing with the ears. If you want them to stand, you can try taping them. Your baby will look adorable any way her ears are.

I think they are adorable just the way they are. My vote is (imagine this to the tune of Pink Floyd's we don't need no education): Hey, Amy, leave them ears alone. 1:07 into video.

| Well since she looks like she has possible Shih Tzu or lhasa apso in her, her ears may never stand. I would just leave them.

Amy, leave them ears alone!!! Do all the breeds your dog is mixed with have stand up ears? They might not be able to stand....Mia is a Biewer, they were up for a long time than boom down...never to rise again...but I love them....
