I could hardly see the picture. You know how german shepherds are supposed to have their ears up? I have one, she has one ear up and one down. I have a yorkie with her ears up, but, then she's 14 or so pounds. I have 2 biewer terriers, the male I think has maltese in him and his ears have always been down, the other one had her ears up until about 2 mos ago, then they for some reason came down, I have a shih tuz with a terrible underbite, a golden retriever(she was sons dog, but he moved out and she stayed), shes going on 4 and has hip dysplasia. Got the picture?? LOL I have 6 dogs and not one perfect one. Hubby says it's me! I am supposed to have a perfect biewer coming, she may be until she gets to this household. The thing is, your baby is adorable ears up or down, who cares, we still love them even if they do have a little fault.
