Ears down! Zayden just turned 8 weeks yesterday. I heard that by that age their ears should be already up. Whats should I do to help out? |
Thats not true.. Mi's Ears didn't start to stand up until 2 weeks ago and she is 16wks today.. Andstill one of her ears are down.. So she has one up and one down LOL.. |
Although mine always had theirs up by that time, a lot of them don't get them up until they're 3 mos. |
I'm not sure about the whens and the whys, but a lot of people tape the ears to get them to stand up. You might search around here for past threads. |
You can help the ears along by shaving the very tips. I would wrap the ears with paper tape, luckily Zander left the tape alone. http://members.cox.net/jrogan/ears.html OR http://members.aol.com/CYorkie/TapingEars.html Its easy. Good luck.;) |

I would not worry about taping the ears until he is at least 12 to 16 weeks old but you do need the keep the hair shaved off of them. When Yorkie puppies are teething the ears go up and down. Of course some Yorkies have large ears or very thick ears and those sometimes tend to never go up. |
So how & where would I shave them? |
this shows how to do it, I always take mine in and the groomer does them. http://members.cox.net/jrogan/ears.html |
2 websites that will help you get your pups ears up... :) http://members.cox.net/jrogan/ears.html[/url] OR http://members.aol.com/CYorkie/TapingEars.html[/url] Paper tape is the best to use, does not pull the hair. |
