| Dependent on the yorkie's growing process at times the go up and down. But, you must you must keep the weight off of them by shaving the tips every week.

Ears should be shaved weekly during the growing process.

| It might be the weight of his hair on his ear weighing it down. You can try trimming the tips of the ear(s). Try that first and give it a day or two to see if it pops back up. Oh, and it's not abnormal for the ears to droop so don't worry.
