I have read about taping, and might consider this, but I am hoping that this problem corrects itself. Does anyone know if it is normal for a Yorkie to all of a sudden have a floppy ear? Also, does anyone know if I should take action on this, and what it should be? Any feedback would be extremely helpful!

At her age, it could be that she is teething. That will sometimes cause them to flop down temporarily.
