Does yorkie pup normally had their ears shaved? Hi all! I would like to enquire does all yorkie pups had their ears shaved when young? Will it affect their fur quality? Thank u. |
It won't effect the hair quality, it helps to get the ears to stand up by taking the weight of the hair off them |
Thank u for ur quick respond waldosmom, Do they always have huge ears or should they hve small ears? |
The ear size is gong to depend on what the genetic background is. Some breeders are trying to keep a medium sized ear but some breeders don't pay much attention to things like that. You don't have to have your puppy's ears shaved if you don't want it done. If your pup's ears are already up and seem to be pretty strong then you may want to leave some fur on them especially if it gets cold where you are. Some pups do need the extra help of having the top part of the ears shaved. |
Thanks gracie, still thinking which to yorkie to get |
I have a 4 month old yorkie boy named Teddy and all of a sudden one of his ears is floppy I keep reading online it's because he is teething and it should go back up what do y'all think? |

I'm located in Singapore, and it is not easy to find a pure yorkshire here, most of'em grown up to be a silky terrier, does all of ur yorkies have pedigree certs? |
I'd say those ears look lowset, one is very floppy and both probably tend to flop is the reason they shaved the whole ear and not just the top 1/3rd. They could still stand or flop. Hair looks a little short and coarse on the head - has it been trimmed? The pup might not be purebred but it is very cute. Tibbe is purebred but a poor example of the breed so that's no guarantee you will get a wonderful example from the pure lineage. When I am looking for a puppy that I think might turn out to have good ears, I look for small, thin ear leathers and highset ears. |
