.......do your ears hang low... do they wobble to and fro......can you tie 'em in a knot...can you tie 'em in a bow..... lalalalalala!!!

Sorry, I couldn't help it..... the thread title reminded me of this cute little song I used to sing with my girls!!

Floppy ears can be so adorable!

Winston's are up...but they are not pointy ears...kind of rounded a little.

dtrahan511 · 10-16-2009, 08:42 AM

Definitely straight up! We laugh that she's just a curious little thing, and always has to know what's going on around her! LOL!

Calleigh's ears have been up since I brought her home at 12 weeks. She definitely hears every little noise.

One of my most favorite features of Roxy's is her ears. one stays up the other down! It's sooo cute!! I have no idea why she is this way but I think it gives her more character

Jasper's are up (how I voted), but Misty's are half floppy (if that makes sense). She can put them up if she wants to though...LoL!

Poppy's ears are down at the moment but she is starting to hold them much higher!
Cant wait for the day when her ears pop up

Debbier2010 · 08-02-2010, 07:58 AM

My two Males are up but I think my female's will be down they are kinda half and half right now only time will tell

it took a while but after a trip to the groomers and her ears trim they are up and have been since the trip to the groomers that was a few months ago

zoedo · 08-07-2010, 08:38 PM

Zoe's is floppy. Both of her parents were too. Makes her look so sweet but would prefer them to be up.

Welcome to YT and congrats on your new furbabies !!!!!

Clipper ? Never heard of that , but my sasha had her ears down when I got her , she was 10 months , her old owner had to rehome her. Her ears had a whole lot of hair on them , so I cut off all the hair on the ear's and in a few weeks they just started to go up by them self. I find in other dogs I have own never let anyone play , touch their ears while they r small and it works for me so far.
Good Luck !! I know I saw here in yt a video on how to hold their ears up,
I'll looking for that thread.

Moe's ears are down. When he is on alert or "huh"-mode, they rise a little but not all the way up. But he looks cute. It's the comment that I get from people (who stereotype yorkies) that get me really frustrated.

smthlisa2001 · 10-10-2010, 02:33 PM

My yorkie is 5 mths old her ears have been down always, I had her ears clipped so they might stand up and the groomer said shes not old enough for her ears to stand so I didnt tape them. Now her ears only stand when she looks straight up at you standing up. I want her ears to stand everybody tells me shes not a yorkie

sleeves211 · 10-11-2010, 08:38 AM

If I answere this a week ago, I would have said up. More recently, one up and one down. Should I shave the ear tips so they're not weighed down?
