When I very first started looking into getting a Yorkie (about eight months before I actually got one), I was under the incorrect assumption that Yorkies with stand-up ears had had their ears clipped. I know this is a procedure done with some other dogs and I had seen pictures of Yorkies with their ears taped so I put two and two together but got five instead of four. So originally, I was dead set on making sure I didn't get a Yorkie with clipped ears!! I'm hesitant enough about the tail docking but the clipping procedure is so much worse that I was completely against it. So I spent a lot of time day dreaming over pictures of floppy eared Yorkies.

Anyway, I'm really glad I found out that I was wrong before I started talking to breeders or I'd have sounded like an awful idiot, lol! Of course, when I found Chloe, I'd have loved her even if she didn't have ears at all! But hers were already standing at 8 weeks and still up when we got her at 10. They never even drooped during teething. Regardless, I still have an awfully soft place in my heart for flop-eared Yorkies from my days of looking at pictures while I searched. All of your Yorkies are just absolute precious!!!
