im new to being a yorkie owner & i have posted in here a few times. but, OMGosh. i love yorkies !! Cash is sooo loving today he fell asleep on me like a baby and slept for 20minutes.

it was sooo cute. everything about him is just adorable.

Also i took him to the vet today for his 3month shots & i had them check his ears cause only one is up so far the other is half way up & the vet said that the breeder must have done his ears Early like 3days old and he has too much scar tissue for them to come up & they never will. But since it is already half way up wont it come up the rest ??

also he learned how to get on the couch & chair today

it is soo cute

he also learned how to get on the table by the chair & thats his fav. spot lol. i attached a picture of him.

Welcome to the forums.
Koda sleep like a baby right on my lap when he first came home. I would try to transfer him into his crate, but nooo, he just kept waking up and crying for me to take him out and put him on my lap again.

How old is your little Cash? He sure is adorable.

I don't have a clue about the ear problem, but I am sure someone else can help you with that.

WHAT did the vet say the owner DID to his ears?? If you do a search on here on "taping ears" there are lots of thread that explain how to tape the ears to help them stand. It usually only takes a couple of days to a week at the most. Also shaving the hair off the upper portion of the ears will help to make sure the hair is not causing too much weight on the ears to stand. That in itself can help them to stand even without taping. I just don't have a clue what your vet would be talking about scar tissue. The ears are not cut to stand.

Congrats on Cash, he is a CUTIE!

Ashsteg · 01-03-2008, 06:43 AM

Rocco1 · 01-03-2008, 06:46 AM

I wouldn't worry about his ears too much, he is SUPER cute just like he is.

No, they are not cropped!! Did your Vet honestly think that cropping is normal procedure for a Yorkie? If so, I would rethink my Vet selection.. If my Vet thought that Yorkies should have their ears cropped, I'm not sure I would trust him for an emergency. I would call around for a Vet with lots of Yorkie experience. I would also make some calls if there is indeed scar tissue.
He is a cutie, and as long as you keep them shaved, they'll come up.

Nope, they never clip yorkie ears. do a search on taping ears. there are a lot of instructions on how to do it.

Cash is adorable. At three months they are still teething so the ears may be down for a bit. There is no guarantee they will go up all the way, as my Bella's ears both go only half way up and then bend down at the top but they look adorable that way as I'm sure your Cash's do too. As I think someone else mentioned, you could shave the top to keep the hair from weighing them down and then follow the instructions to tape them. I did do this with my little Lilly and after a day or so they popped right up and have stayed up, although I think a lot had to do with timing and teething. They may have been just ready to pop up on their own.

Best of luck
Elaine

Cash is adorable. You can try shaving his ears, and then taping them up again.

urbnalbino · 01-03-2008, 10:27 AM

oh my goodness -- I cannot BELIEVE your vet thought yorkie ears are cropped! Poster above is right, you really need to do some checking around before you make a permanent selection on your vet. That is not good. My family is blessed to have an awesome vet in our area that isn't a crook for bills. Good luck with your little cutie pie! And CASH is SUCH an awesome name!

Is Cash a purebred Yorkie? I would love to see the ears close-up. If they are indeed cropped, your breeder needs a few phone calls too. I can't believe they would do such a thing.

I hate having the tails docked, but it is the standard.
