Do some reading and see if it might be something you might want to try to help keep ears up.
Since Sabres ears are not actually floppy, just "soft" I haven't done any research on that in years, so I'm going on memory and haven't tried Vit C on him because I don't feel the need. |
I've heard calcium supplements can be helpful. Calcium is stored in cartilage and when extra calcium is needed to grow teeth and bones, it will pull it from cartilage, so ears droop.
