Pixie has really strong ears. I got her 8 weeks with hairy standing ears, and pretty much they have always been that way. I love it, because she has the papillon look to her. Her ears have been tipped maybe 3 times? My mentor would do it when we'd go visit because she just can't stand seeing Pixie look, and I quote, A hairy mess.
Except I stopped letting her do it this time last year, because I didn't want her ears getting cold, lol.
Sabre is a cotton coat and he's ears are always a tiny bit too soft. He was tipped when I got him and I have actually had his whole ear shaved and they're still soft. I expect I'll have to have him shaved again soon, even though I prefer their ears warm for the winter, because his ears are getting too soft again.
I have a feeling that worrying about Sabre's ears breaking down is going to be a life long thing for me.
