take the puppy to a groomer to have the ears completely shaved and either have the ears taped up or tape them up yourself. There are instructional websites if you google it on exactly how to tape them. | |

Hey I had a pup that her ears didnt stand, so i shaved the ears, cut a straw the length of the ears, and then folded the ears lengthwise around the straw. then placed a piece of tape to center it across the ears. volia.. it worked. | |

Hi i received both my puppies with floppy ears and took them to have their ears shaved and taped up their ears and it worked like a charm. | |

Hi, my Chloe had one ear that stayed up and one down, looked like she had a bright idea, every time I looked at her. I tried the tape and all that, and it worked for about one minute and the ear fell down and eventually the other ear came down. She still looks cute with them down. | |

my puppy's ears don't stand either..i actually like them better down for now but i'm concerned about what she will look like when she gets older. i'm still deciding if i should try to start taping them now. she's 4 months.. when is it too late? here is a picture of her.. | |

We had the same problem years ago and as she aged the ears stood up on their own. Good luck. | |

Go to Kananis Baby and see pics of Chloe. She looks really cute with her ears down. I would add picture, but I haven't got it down yet. Your baby is so cute, I think it is really up to you what you want. | |

All you have to do is take him to be groomed, have the hair cut off his ears. The hair weighs them down! I just had it done for my pup, and within a hour, both ears were up like champions!!! Don't sweat the small stuff. :-) | |

My baby Harlie's did that too...she had one ear up and one ear down..she was too cute!Feed her Yogurt,she needs more calcium!I gave Harlie a table spoon every night for about 3 days after her regular meal,and within a week her other ear was up!!Plus it is a great desert for them too!! | |

Ears won't stand upI never heard of yogurt helping with the ears standing up but want to try it...should I just do plain vanilla or can I give her any flavor? Also I tried the tape with a small piece of straw I will see how that works. How long should I keep this on her? | |
