I toyed with the idea of taping them as I have for puppies with great success in the past. But I'm not sure if her ears could stand up at this age. Should I leave her with floppy ears or try to get them to stand up? My snobbery is no more, by the way. I would give it a shot if there's a possibility or leave them floppy because I love her no matter how her ears look. Any opinions?  |
I'm only a snob when it comes to breeding, I think a breeder should breed a dog with erect ears and on the smallish side and in the correct position, etc. etc. etc., but as far as pet owners, we can relish in their individual differences, and floppy ears are adorable.
