| You are right, these little ones are adorable with ears up or down. Most times after they are done teething, they will come back up on their own. Sometimes you can massage the ears to get blood flowing and that helps them go back up. You can also shave the ears so that they weigh less and they will stand up too. I would love to see some pics of your baby!

| I just sat with Kaya in my lap and massage her ears in the up position and they went up and stayed up. |

| They should stand up before six months of age. If you notice nothing is happening around 5.5 months, you should take the extra measure of taping/shaving/massaging the ears. After six months, they'll likely stay down. Still cute, though! |

| She is so cute, I am not sure what causes the ears to drop but most of the time if they are up in the beginning they will come back up, that is what the vet told me. Also my lily's ears were small and one day they just fell when she was about 7 months old and i took her to the groomer and they trimmed a little hair off the back side of her ears and they stood up immediately.

| OMGosh!!!!! Cookie is a total sweetie. I love her. I agree that her ears will pry go back up. Teething and extra hair play a part in it. I love her
