Floppy ears are not to standard. They are a recessive trait so if your bitch has floppy ears it is heterozygous for that trait. Unless the dog that you breed her to is homozygous for erect ears than 2 out of 4 pups would end up with flop ears and the other 2 will carry that recessive gene. Keep it up and yorkies won't look like yorkies at all.
