| Ears going up at 4 yrs? Sorry if this topic has been done to death. Peanut will be 4 yrs old in June. She came to me at 1 1/2 and her ears have always been floppy. I think the floppy ears are cute on her, but I have noticed that she tries to hold them up a little. Yesterday at the groomers I had the tips of her ears shaved for the first time and low and behold they are pretty much all the way up today.... Well not completely, but more than I have ever seen them. I didn't think this was possible at this age. I though that if they were not trained to go up as a puppy that they would just remain floppy forever. Hmmmm.... anyone else ever experienced this?

| Anything is possible, but yes, the hair must have been keeping them from standing. I had puppy one time who had stand up ears till he was nearly a year old, then they both flopped. |

| I really wasn't expecting them to go up soo much. The groomer looked at me funny when I asked her to shave the tips, like I was in some sort of floppy ear denial or something. LOL!!
