| Awww, poor little guy. I'm sure he's adorable and you love him anyway, right? His ears just make him special. |

| That is very unusual. You might try the Breathe Right Strips glued inside the ear to hold the middle part straight. Use surgical/eyelash glue to hold it in place as the adhesive is not that strong on the back of the strips.

| I see the ears are shaved. That takes the weight off them so that they can stand upright, but in your puppy's case they went backwards instead. How old is your puppy. They usually can't hold their ears upright until a certain age. You might try weighting them with something to compensate for the hair being gone. I just can't think with what. |

| yes they are shaved the breeder did it do that their ears wont have any weight. Tomorrow he will be 13 weeks old. the funny thing is that they were perfectly erect for some time and now they leant back! |

| ears Don't worry, it will flip back over..I have seen them curl backwards for a few days or weeks when trying to stand...keep the hair trimmed and tape if needed...but you won't have to tape it to uncurl it... |
