| Why the droopy ears? Can anyone tell me why all of a sudden my 13 week old pups ears started to droop? I heard to tape them with masking tape....is this correct? |

| Puppies ears go up and down from teething, water in the ears from baths, ear mites or it could be an ear infection. If you see head shaking, pawing at the ears, or there is a foul smell from the ears, I would take him to the Vet and get him checked. If it's do to teething the ear should pop back up on there own.

| Have you shaved them down or are they pretty hairy. You might need to shave them and tape them for a while and they should pop back up again. Yorkie girl gave good advice on the rest of the question. |

| My little boy's ears are up but my little girl (4 1/2 months) has her ears down. I shaved both inside and out farther down than you usually do and I thought about the tape but then she is soooo cute with her ears down and unique. I decided that her ears can do what they want. That is what makes Rosie different. |
