Final attempt to fix that lazy ear.

[msyorktown]

Jersey had one lazy ear...it finally stayed up at 11mths of age. Been taping on and off since she was 5mths old.

Aww he's so cute!! I kept the tape on Bella for 3 days, it wasn't long enough. Her ears were up for 2 days after that & then flopped right back down.. So now at some point I have to do it again. I would go at least 5-7 days w/cutting the tape in between so she is more comfortable. Good luck

His upright ear was string to look floppy even though I had the piece of tape between the two ears. I was getting worried so I broke down and took the tape off. We now have TWO ears!!!! Ok well two upright ears. lol

Oh my, he is just so darn cute!!

Yay!! My Bentley had issues too. I taped his ears off and on for what seems like forever and the left ear still flopped over. I had taped and tipped, but no luck. Well, after posting my frustrations here and investing in a moustache clipper, he decided he wants both ears up. Lol. I was using a regular clipper, but I think the moustache clipper shaved closer and took more hair off and now both his ears are up and have been for 2 weeks. So, there is hope,even at 1 year old. :-)

Luma's ears went up immediately but were kinda funky for a while from the tape. Rosie's were down when she came home and for the first week. I tried taping but got her hair stuck in the medical tape and I felt so bad...I decided ti let what happens, happen. She had one up one floppy for a good bit...now they're both up What helped us was massaging the base of the ears "upwards"...I really think it helped!

Awe how cute!! They still look cute with one down but I always felt like Guinness was asking me a question when he stared at me with one up one down

Well they are up still this morning. I'm starting to think his ears get tired. lol After last night's post later that evening when it was bedtime BOTH ears were flopped down. After both his ears got a good night sleep they are perky again this morning. lol Go figure.

You can give him a little bit of cottage cheese or plain yogurt for calcium. When they teeth it takes the calcium from the cartilage in their ears.

Oakley will be 6 months on the 18th and his ears still flop. Guess he'll join the "crown" club shortly.

ARGH!!!!! I come home to both ears down today. This boy is doing this on purpose I swear. lol
