| Harley and Davidson's Ears I am new to this site. But I have 2 yorkies, Harley and Davidson, they are brothers and are 4 months old. But I cannot get their ears to stand up. Each of them has one that will stand up but the other wont. Will the other stand up eventually or do I need to do something about them? I do trim the hair off but I cannot find any tape that will stay on their ears. Thanks. |

| My vet seems to think the taping is an old wives tale, but many swear by it so I don't know. My vet does recommend trimming the hair and massaging the ear tips. It's still not too late for them to stand. A lot of times they are up and then go back down at about 4 months because of teething. |

| Harley & Davidson's ears I have heard of massaging them also. So I do that everyday now. They are just so cute when they stand up. I do shave the outside and inside of the ear. So hopefully they will stand up after awhile. Thanks so much |

| Taping is awesome. Shave both sides of the ears and use scotch tape to tape them. You can find sites through google that show pictures of exactly how to do it. I have taped 2 yorkies ears and both times it has worked brilliantly.

| Yeah, you are like me. Seems like there is always something that comes up and cannot get one. But I also will have me one, one day. |
