Default taping ears

My yorkie is 8 weeks old and one of his ear is still floppy. The breeder told me to tape it and I think her way is amazinly simple.

I cut a water drop shape (the size of his inside ear) in a piece of paper slighly more rigid then printer paper. Colored drawing paper is problably the right weight.

I glue the back of the paper with eyelash adhesive and stick it inside his ear and that's it. His ear is perked up and I am less worried then using tapes.

The one she uses is Ardell Lashgrip adhesive. She said they have 2 color tubes inside the box. Some box contain a clear tube where you see the glue. She said that one doesn't stick and I am to buy the one where the tube is white.

I leave it on until it falls off then wait a day or so to see if it will stay up and redo it if it doesn't. I also have to make sure the hair is kept short.
