| Her ears are finally up!!! Tessa has one ear standing up!! I got her cheeper because she had both ears floppin down. I got up this morning to let her out and her right ear was up and it has been up the whole time now. I am now wondering if the other will go up too. What could I do to try and get it up, she is 12 weeks. |

| My Angel had that problem. I shaved the hair on her ears and within 2 days they were standing. Betty |

| My quess is the other one will go up. I would give it a couple of weeks and if it doesnt shave and tape. Ive heard massaging the ear is good also. My Jewels ear did the same thing and a week later the other ear was up

| Kimbo's right ear came up when he was 10.5 weeks old. I massaged the other ear and it came up a week later. He's 12 weeks old now. Check out my photo album. You can really see the difference! |

| You are right you can see the differance. I will massaged the other ear and see what happens. I was just so supprised that it came up!! She would look cute with one up and one down. That way I would know she was mine!! |

| My little Bela is 4 year old and her ears still droop down, whereas Leo is only 14 weeks old and his have been proudly standing up since he was 10 week old, it dont matter, up or down they are both georgeous. |

| Lol, I secretly wished Kimbo's ears would stay droopy. It was just soooo cute to see them flop when he ran! |

| Lola had one floppy ear when we got her. I thought it looked cute, but DH wasn't too impressed. So I did the massage for a bit, and within a week it was standing up straight and tall as the other one. I STILL think the droopy one was cute!

| I would shave and massage the ear. I did that with Izzie, it helps take the weight off the ear while the cartilage gets stronger.
