Love Big Ears

I'm almost embarrassed to ask but if your Yorkie has big ears what's the best way for her to wear her hair on her ears?

Do you keep the hair on the ears short, let it grow or what?

Is there anything you can do to "camouflage" the ears???

Don't be embarrassed. How old is your little one? Wyatt had really big ears up until the last month or so. He is now 8 months old. He finally grew into his. I never tried to camouflage them. I just left them alone.

Hopefully your baby will grow into hers.

If I had one with big ears, and it bothered me, I would let the hair on the ears grow, and even let the ears flop over. But I think they're cute with big ears.

Love

She just turned 6 months. She looks kind of funny now as she has this long body, big ears and short legs.

I'm hoping her head will grow, her legs get longer and her body fill out!*!

She's at that "gangly" stage right now.

She's eating 1/2 cup twice a day of Innova Puppy food.

How do you "let" the ears flop over? Would hair being too long cause the ears to flop over????

Yes the added weight of long hair will make their ears droop. Well for some of thm anyway, maybe not all of them.

Hmmmm... maybe I'll try that. He doesn't have a topknot, does it?

Neither of ours have had a topknot but I may try one. That would be cute and would distract from looking at the ears. Everyone would be looking at the topknot instead!

Thanks.
