| Ears Hercules is 10 wks now and his ears have been up for a couple weeks. This morning they were up and then when I picked him up out of his special hiding spot they are floppy again. Is this normal and will they go back up?

| If you trim the hair off it will help sometimes the weight of it will pull them down usually if they ever come up they stay unless they are teething or just don't feel good but they will come up again or i should say mine always have

| I got my little pup around 13 weeks and one of his ears was up and the other was floppy. Within a couple of weeks, they flopped back down again where they stayed for about a month. The groomer suggested that he shave the tips of his ears and his ears perked right up within days where they stayed for good. He kept tipping his ears for the next couple of months, just in case, but now he even sleeps with his ears up! I think you'll find that his ears will go back and forth between up and down for a few months, but if you tip them, they should come back up when he gets a little older. |
