I think most puppies have "floppy ears" (that go up and down for a while) -- and they are certainly cute.

My pup sounds exactly like yours - I almost wanted him to keep his floppy ears forever - they were so cute. And, like your pup, mine also has "big ears."

As I said, my pups ears went up and down for a while, but at about four months, they went up and stayed up. Prior to this, I decided that I did want his ears "up" because, for me, this is what makes a Yorkie look like a Yorkie. To each his own, but adult Yorkies with floppy ears - don't really look like little Yorkies to me. (But, they still do look like the cutest little dogs in the world.)

Now that my pups ears are up to stay - they are big - and he looks like a little coyote to me.

You'll get a lot of help from others on how to help your little Yorkies ears stay up. (Or - they may well eventually do it on their own - without any extra help.) Or...........you may prefer them down - if they chose to be that way.

Good luck - Carol Jean
