I cut the hair off around the edges of his ears (no on the ears), and believe it or not, his ears are actually somewhat smaller than they looked. So, obviously the hair sticking out all around the sides of his ears made his ears look even bigger than they are.

So maybe there is hope.....and he won't end up looking like ears with a little dog attached.

He'll finish his shots soon and I am going to have the groomer shave the hair off the upper part of his ears, inside and outside. If they don't go up, I'll tape them. Hope I don't have to work too hard on this. He hates it.

I'm open for any further advise or something I should be doing.

Sounds like you're doing fine. My Bubba has big ears. They were up, down and one up, on down etc. When he was 4 months, both stayed up until he was 6 months and got neutered. He came home with one ear down. The next week the other went down. Well he's floppy eared and I think it's adorable!
