It doesnt matter if you tape the ears or not, its genetics in the end. You can tell when a yorkie has it's ears taped, they tend to look more ..oddly shaped, and it doesn't always work. I never taped my dogs ears and they stand up, her mom and dad had ears that stood up so it happened on its own as with most dogs with stand up ears. If the ears never stand up it means there is a genetic disposition to that somewhere in the blood line, personally I wouldn't breed a yorkie with floppy ears or an oversized one but a lot of people do and sell them to people thinking they will have a dog that looks like the breed standard that ends up anything but.
