Ear Taping; What do you think? 1 Attachment(s) So Jack is now 14 weeks and his ears are as floppy as they come. lol When we first brought him home at 10 weeks, one would stand occasionally, but now they just flop (unless he looks up, then both stand). Do you think we should tape them? Or just leave them the way they are? Our previous yorkie, Max had smaller ears and they stood up without taping. Is it just an aesthetic thing, or is it really better for them? Attachment 387412 :animal-pa |
I guess it is what you like. Our little girl was twelve weeks old and we had the breeder put some tape on. When we got her home our vet taped her ears and now she has beautiful ears. If you want them up just have someone that is familiar on taping ; it is not hard to do. Hope this helps. Susan |
Up or down ears all yorkie are cute! I happen to like yorkie ears that are up but it's all up to you and the way you like them. Sometimes the ears stand up on their own and other times they need some help in doing so. I shaved 1/3 off the top and back of Chloe's ears and then taped them up. I only kept them taped up for 3 days. After three days I took the tape off and they stood and never flopped. I still keep her ears trimmed front and back 1/3 off the top. She's 9 months now. |
I know we don't get a vote but I love your Jacks floppy ears. They are so cute! I would just leave them. |
I love floppy ears! My puppy is 12 weeks old and still has floppy ears, sometimes one will stand up but then it's back to floppy again! Lol. I dont think I am going to tape them ... |
If you want them to stand the hair on the ears need to be shaved like Janice said 1/3 front and back of ear. The weight of the hair will not allow the ear to go up. |
This may be crazy but I actually wish one of my pups had floppy ears. I love them. Super cute.:) |
Hmm...yeah everyone we meet loves his ears (they're quite big for his little head, so having them stand may look quirky lol) But they were trimmed the day we picked him up and that's when the one would stand by itself. He won't be at the groomers for awhile so...I guess we'll decide until it's time for his first haircut. I am leaning towards leaving them floppy though. :D I wasn't sure if one or the other was better for them. A friend of ours said he may be prone to ear infections if left floppy :-/ Quote:

I think he looks cute the way he is. I only had one that had floppy ears and she was so cute. |
I think he's adorable how ever he looks!! With floppy ears or up ears, He's adorable!! :) |
Welcome to the big ear Yorkie Club (okay not really a club but we could start one). Sophie Kate has big ears, they stand up but the tips flop over. I shaved them, taped them and tried everything. Honestly I love a floppy ear Yorkie. |
Thanks for your input, guys! I guess he will be left floppy. To be honest, I love when he runs and they flop all over lol. I think it's the most adorable thing ever. |
2 Attachment(s) Bella's ears are floppy too, and I think they're cute. They stand at the base and curve over at the tip--they remind me of the Flying Nun's hat, LOL! |
That is how Sophie Kate's turned out also. |
