14 weeks 4 days

VegasResident · 09-20-2010, 10:24 AM

This is my little guy at 14 weeks and 3 days old. The left ear goes comb over the head (not soft floppy). Oddly he can turn it as it is pretty firm. Problem is he likes to lie on the left side and also tends to squish that ear side up against anything when he sleeps on the floor as he likes to put his head up against things when he sleeps like walls, cabinets couches, etc. I am concerned his napping position is not helping but that cant change since he wont sleep in the middle of a big empty floor and even then he sleeps on this ear side

Think it will need some support in a few weeks?

What a cutie! No he's only 14 weeks and they are well on their way up. No worries here.

Stosh's did the exact same thing- a good ear, it was just laying on top of his head like a comb-over. It popped up straight in no time. Very adorable puppy you have!

Thanks everyone!!!

I realize how funny it is the concern I and I am sure everyone else has with the ears.....but it is the staple trade mark of a german shepherd and I feel bad for the little guy when people go..."whats wrong with his ear?" since they think that GSD ears stand up from birth!
