Hello, I am new to YorkieTalk and I have A LOT to learn. I am planning on getting a Yorkie sometime in the near future, but I want to do as much reading as I can before I bring a puppy home.

With that said,

I have a question about ears. I read the FAQ's, and it said that their ears may go up and down at different times due to stress etc., and that you can tape their ears and massage their ears to help them stay up....but I just LOVE LOVE LOVE them with floppy ears. I have seen some full grown Yorkies that still had floppy ears, so I was wondering, is there anything I can do to insure that my Yorkie's ears will stay floppy? If this is in any way unhealthy or bad for them, then of course I will just let the floppy ear thing go, because they are still adorable either way. Any info would be greatly appreciated, thanks.
