Floppy Ears my yorkie is only 7 weeks old and she has floppy ears. I have never seen one with floppy ears is this normal? Will she grow out of this. Also her coat is not fluffy like most yorkie puppies i have seen it is just straight and coarse. |
Duncan has floppy ears I think some have them and some don't also some will stand up when they get a bit older. |
Do you have a picture of your duncan? |
7 weeks is pretty young for his ears to be standing. You may end up taping them but I wouldn't worry about that just yet. |
What do you mean by taping them? |
Here he is next to Mollie dog on a camping trip last summer. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...s/100_0147.jpg |
Ramsey is 11 weeks and his ears are floppy, but I have noticed every once in a while he will hold them straight up. (like when he hears someone walking up the steps). |
Here is Sammi at 16 weeks old...One ear up and one down... http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2.../Sammiears.jpg Here she is now...Still floppy ears :) Just how i wanted em :) (I never trimmed the hair in them) http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...ammi/Sammi.jpg |
1 Attachment(s) ...my comet has floppy ears too! My vet told me that it depends on the breed of the yorkie which determines whether their ears flop or not. I love my comets floppy ears! I just keep them clean and dry due to the lack of air that passes through. |
My Chewy has 1 ear up and 1 ear dowm. It is too cute! :p |
Fran42478: your second picture is almost exactly what my Tito looks like :) |

The first picture of Sammi is exactly how Mickey's ears from the time I got him til about 18 weeks old. But know they are both up :animal-sm |
My Sophie is 6 mths. old and her ears are floppy. I think they look cute that way. Your puppy is very young there is a good chance they will stand. :aimeeyork |
Scrappy's ears were up at 8 weeks, but weren't trimmed, so they fell and are down (he is five years). Ruby is a Shorkie so of course hers do not stand..they are huge and cute. As far as other members, I believe Valerie's Sully (Passionfruition) has one up, one down, & Cynthia's Bo (IHeartYorkies) has floppy ears, too. |
Be Thankful Personally I think the floppy ones are the cutest! It just gives them more personality. :) |
