Hi There!

Mya is a doll!! How much cottage cheese are you giving her and why? I would maybe cut the amount in half or stop period. Usually dogs don’t take dairy well. If you are giving in small amount a couple times a month- not a big deal, but I wouldn't make it a habit. She is also pretty young. There are other things you can give her that would be better suited for her.

Her ears should stand on their own. I was able to play with Peanut’s ear, I also had the groomer shave them. The hair on the ears weighs them down. In her down time you can also rub them.. rub from the bottom up, like you are pushing them up- I did that and I believe it helped. In the picture her ears look like they will stand up- just the shape to me looks like it.

The dairy could make her eyes watery- gunky. That is why I advised you to cut down the cottage cheese or stop it period.

What kibble are you feeding?
