When I got Gracie Ruth at 12 weeks, both of her ears were still down. Within a week or 2 one was standing up but the other was still down. I wanted to first try just shaving the hair off of the tips to see if the weight was what was pulling it down. Trimmed her ears and the next day both where standing up. Never needed to tape them. Try trimming off a bit from the tips and see if that won't work. 8 weeks is still pretty young, her ears just may not be ready yet.
1) When I first got her
2) Shortly thereafter, 1 came up
3) If you look closely you can see that just the tips are 'hairless' |
