A breeder over here in England always told me to rub there ears to encourage blood flow to the ends.The widening of the veins with blood helping them to stand.A similar procedure as with mens bits
We have always done this while the dogs have sat with us.All of our dogs have liked this and have come to regard it as fussing.All my dogs ears have stood up.Don't know if this was helping or they would have stood up anyway.Has anybody over there heard of this or done this?
