| Welcome to YT! OMGoodness look at that face! He is adorable! Have you tried shaving some hair off the tip of his ears? Sometimes alot of hair on their ears weigh the ear down. Also sometimes they just flop and will not come back up. One of my girls have floppy ears and she's 2 yrs old. Her ears really never stood up. |

| What a little doll he is. Look at that happy face! Like the above poster's said, have the hair shaved down about 1/3 on the ears. Watch them pop back up. Sometimes the hair makes the ears flop. He looks cute that way too. Welcome. |

| After looking at his ears on the pics it looks like the tips were shaved. Is there hair growing off the tip now? If he's a little hairy bug like my Gabby I would try maybe thining the hair from his ear a bit and shaving it down more than 1/3 just so you get his ears back up. |

| I heard somewhere, that the ears go down, when they are teething, or they are not feeling well. He looks like he was just groomed. I was going to sujest, taping them, but I think it's to late for that. I would just wait to see what happens. by the way, I see the ears has not being shaved properly. try to shave almost a little over the 3rt of his ears
