Default Ears seem kind of small

Okay, so I realize that the ears going up takes time, and I'm trying not to be too paranoid about that, but Dutch's ears seem kind of small compared to pictures I've seen of other dogs at his age. Do the ears get a growth spurt at any time? His feet are freakin huge, but his ears seem a tad on the small side.

Do you have any pictures of him? IF they aren't up yet they won't look as big. Did you look at the ears in this thread?

I don't have any from the past few days, and he's grown quite a bit I think so I'll take some more pics when I get home.

I don't think they look small. They are heading up so have the appearance of being smaller because you're seeing half tipped over. He will be very normal!

He's very cute!

It just amazes me how fast he is growing. He has basically doubled in size in three weeks. Pretty soon he won't be a puppy anymore

I agree 50% of the ear is standing up behind the 50% thats flapped over so it just gives the apperance of being smaller....A few weeks from now you'll be posting "Ears seem too big" LOL

Big I would expect. Like the feet, I would expect them to be too big because he's going to grow into them.
