yorkies ears Hi, I have a five month old yorkie and she is having trouble keeping her ears up. I have taped them up several times. She can hold themup at times during the day but other times they are laying flat. any one have any suggestions. thanks |
Has the long hair been trimmed on them? If not, it could be weighing them down. Also from some great info I gained from here, yogurt and cottage cheese are high in calcium and mixed with their food, can make the cartridge stronger in the ears as well. |
Hi there and welcome to Yorkie Talk :) At 5 months, she is still teething so those ears may go up and down during this time. Something you can do to help a little is to keep the weight off...trim the ear hair. Be careful with taping. I have heard that it can cause more harm than good if not done correctly. Post some pics when you can....we love us some pics :) Hope you join in the community here. This place is filled with so many helpful people and info. :) |
I have kept her ears trimmed but it was good to know about the teething. I'll try the cotton cheese also. Thanks for the suggestions. Also her hair on her head is changing color the her body hair is still black. Has anyone seen a black yorkie before. |
