floppy ears... forever? so, gizmo is 13 weeks and the ears are still flopped. They only stand when he leans back.. LOL, I am assuming they are gonna always be this way.. anyone have older yorkies with floppy ears? |
2 Attachment(s) All hope is not lost - do a search on the site and there are many, many threads about getting ears to stand up. Shaving, taping, etc. But, I have a floppy eared yorkie (he's 1 yr old) and I think his ears couldn't be cuter!!!! The picture attached with Howie in blue is what his ears look like with a shorter hair cut and "yorkie ears" and the other pictures is his longer hair. |
they were taped when i brought him home and i couldn't bare to do that to him lol.. so they fell after a little while.. but I think they are cute too.. I plan on keeping his hair short all the time.. Its my first yorkie so I am cluless about how to get it cut or anything! |
if you are ever planning on breeding him, you need to try to get his ears up. |

1 Attachment(s) Here's a pic of my floppy eared girl. She is 14 months. We tried taping, massaging, keeping them shaved, more taping... everything to try and get them to stand up. Nothing worked... but she's a keeper! |
floppy ears ;) Hi there, I have an 11 month old Yorkie and her ears aren't upright all the time...usually the tips are flopped over.....who cares.....we love her to death anyway! Unless you plan to show him...don't worry about it. |
1 Attachment(s) Personally, on these adorable little furbabies, anything looks good. As long as you have no plans to breed, floppy ears can be too cute, like little pigtails. Here's a pic of my little Spanky, the prettiest face with her very own pigtails: |
My little guy has floppy ears. When he was little they were up and down, especially when he was teething. I wanted to tape them but my husband said he liked them better floppy. As you can see he is ADORABLE ( doggie not husband) but sometimes I wish they stood up for the unique yorkie look. |
2 Attachment(s) I have one up and one down and we think they are both equally adorable! In pix #1, my daughter says Rowdy (ears up) looks like a rat! How dare her! :) |
my "down ear boy"... WOW... how much I love him! I have let his hair grow really long and he is just too cute! I have one of each too and they are both just adorable! so is yours by the way! d <<SEE... hehe |
We have a little girl that has floppy ears. She could not be cuter. We never for a moment tried to get them to stand up. We love her this way. Everyone always thinks she is a puppy. |
I think that they are cute with floppy ears, just as cute as with ears that stand up. |
1 Attachment(s) I have a floppy eared boy and I love it. |
2 Attachment(s) i taped maggie's ears when she was 11 weeks old (if i remember right) and they stood up for a very long time. but as soon as she lost most of her teeth and they started growing back in, the ears flopped. i taped them for a day to see if they would come back up and they didn't. still floppy. i was told to leave them in for 3 days and see what happens. so i will probably do that, but if they do not stand this time, we will just leave them floppy. I really like the classic "yorkie" look so I want her ears to stand...but if they have to stay floppy, then so be it...she is precious and perfect to me either way. here is a pic of her down, and up. and they were REALLY up :) for quite a while...now they are half up, the tops laying down. kinda cute tho :) |
1 Attachment(s) My Jada's ears never stood up, but its ok, she looks cute anyway..Here's a pic... |

1 Attachment(s) I love them with floppy ears and made the decision not to tape Tank's so they would stay floppy. If I took some more of the hair of that weighs them down I think they would still stand at least some what. He's 14 months old. Here's a pict of him and his floppy ears. |
Floppy ears too 4 Attachment(s) My lil girl is 8 months old and has floppy ears too, they stand up once in a while. At first I wanted them up and have tried to tape up too but my boyfriend says she looks cuter w/ them down. So I just let nature take it's course and most of the time they are down. But I love her either way. Here are some pics. Attachment 99578 Attachment 99579 Attachment 99580 Attachment 99581 |
YOU KNOW WHAT IS WEIrd though i noticed, my baby lost all the hair on her ears now, i took her to the vet and he told me that is heridity. So she has no hair on her ears, i dont see anyone's Yorkies with no hair on there ear. I wonder why shes like that, she had alot of hair on her ears for the first 7 months. She's a year now. |
I think it is soooo cute with the little floppy ears..I love seeing babies with those. |
1 Attachment(s) Brownies 5 and when he was little i didnt know to shave them but i look at pics from then and they were going up now its to late but i love them floppy |

I have a floppy eared yorkie too. I think they are so cute with floppy ears. Toto will be 2 years old on March 2. He can hold his ears up when he wants to. |
I have a floppy eared dog and one with em up. Then my newest puppy hers were starting to kinda go up, but struggling to stay up, so I taped em and 2 days later, they are up. |

I think they are all cute -- but I picked a Yorkie for the Yorkie look. So, I wanted their ears to stand as they should. |
this is weird though i have noticed that most of the yorkies with a teddy bear face have floppy ears and the dollfaced ones dont, they have ears that are up. Is this common? does anyone know what i am talking about? |
