| Puppies Ears ??? Hello, I have a 4 week old boy, his ears are folded which I believe is normal for his age, however I can't find any information on whether his ears will naturally begin to point up or if they need to be tapped or cut or what have you. My females (his mother) earrs where tapped but, I can't get ahold of her breeder to ask why and at what age they tapped them...Anyone who can help me THANK YOU!! I feel like a total ding asking this question. Mrs. K |

| They should go up normally, but if they don't.....he is too young to tape them yet. |

| Use a beard trimmer to remove the hair from the front and back of the ear. Getting the weight off is often enough to let the ear come up on it's own. If it's not trying to stand by six weeks it's time to tape. |
