| You can try shaving the ear and taping it to see if it will stand up.

| Ears go up and down with teething. Be sure the tips of the ears are shaved to take the weight off them.

| I got Mojo at 3 months and one ear was up the other down. I thought it was the most adorable thing ever! The vet said it was a sign of being out of his comfort zone and that it would go up once he settled in to my home. And it sure did. Now he has the most beautiful v shaped ears ever! |

| Hi Shaving the hair off is a good thing to do and taping the ear or ears up for 3 or 4 days and then take them down for a day and then tape them back up works vey well. I had one ear I had to tape up until my boy was a year old but they are beauitful v shaped ears now. Be carefull not to put the tape to close to the head because it can rub and make a sore at the base of the ear. Good Luck |

| I just trimmed her ears and gave her some extra vitamins with calcium for puppies. My vet said it was most likely due to the fact that she was teething and was loosing calcium from the cartlidge. It was only down a few weeks |

| Mufasa is 13 weeks old and his ears aren't up. Should they be? Do most of their ears go up naturally or do you have to tape/shave in order for them to stand up? |

| Hi Well as stated by the other lady some ears never stay up. It is best to tape them up for 3-4 days and then take them down for a day and repeat for a few weeks until they stand. Some take more time then others. Depending on your puppy/dog. I use NuVet plus supplement it helps with all my pets heath needs you can call Dennis at 1800-474-7044 give him this code 48122 you will have less vet bills and they live much longer healthier lifes. It comes in a treat or power you can put in the food. If you or anyone else would like a free sample contact me and send me a self address envelope i will send you a sample or just call and order some it has a full money back offer. It is wonderful if you are raising puppies or a senior pet. Have a Blessed Day |
