Any one else have a yorkie with..big ears?

[Sweet Apple]

Bailey doesn't have big ears, he has a small body...lol...And Baileys ears look just fine...As someone else said, in this thread, Bailey is one of the most handsome boys on the site...That his ears are a tad bigger than his little itty bitty body, is very endearing...After all, he's the Bail'ster

I love Bailey's ears that is one of the features that makes him so darn cute! My daughters Yorkie Gidget has big ears and when she was a puppy I use to call her baby new year!! lol

I think my Rucker has big ears....lol.

LOL ... yes, Jackson's got pretty big ears. They look bigger when the hair starts to grow on them and he needs a haircut. They're not like humongous but I think they're big lol. And that's fine by me - I love his big head, and ears!

My friend's husband teases me about Mr. Darcy's ears being like a bat. Their Yorkie has tiny ears - one went up and the other stayed down! I did wonder about Mr. Darcy's ears, but I have seen lots and lots of pictures of Yorkies and they have they don't have tiny little ears either. But you are right about them looking bigger when he is wet!!!! I have to say though, I think he is just the most handsome little man I know! and I tell him so ALL the time!

Haha, Yes! That's what it is! Bailey's is petite so his ears only "appear" larger!

Reesie ears look big but I think it's just the fur. She gets the treatment this week.

Uni's got huge ears too. I make sure to keep the tips trimmed so as not to add more length to her ears. I've also been growing out the bottom portion of her ear hair to add "width" to it, to make them seem smaller. I've also notice a really big bow makes the ears look smaller. But I'm so lazy topknots and bows are only for special occasions. Don't her ears look more proportional with the bow?

I say Mabel has large ears so she say's i have a oversize BUTT! It all works out! Oh yeah that Jackson is one of the cutest yorkies i've ever seen!!

To all you big eared Yorkies out there: The secret to making your ears look more in-proportion to your head is in the grooming... the upper half to a third of the ear only should be trimmed/clipped to the shape of the ear, If the ear tip itself is rounded, trim the hair to a point. Leave the lower half - 2/3 of the ear untouched. When looking at the ears, this tricks the eye into seeing the lower part of the ears as part of the head, and the eye sees the trimmed portion as the ear. Experiment with the amount of hair left on the ear to find the most natural look...
