How close to lift off are we???

sportsman1539 · 01-25-2011, 08:45 PM

In the past week, Sammie's ears have gone through some changes. They are not standing up but it seems like we are getting close. Here is a pic the first day I got her 1 week and 1 day ago when they were pretty much floppy. http://i276.photobucket.com/albums/k...e65weeks10.jpg

Now here are some pics today. The one where they are standing her head is tilting back some so thats why they are standing up. How long do you think we have?

What is she? About 9-10 wks tops? I know it's different for each dog. However her ears don't seem very large at the moment, which could mean they could go up in the next week or so, and then come down when teething hits, depending on size.

The bases of the ears look really good. My girls ears didn't actually stand until she was about 14-15 wks. She had the whole flying nun thing going on for a while. Have you tried a Kong yet with peanut butter? That actually worked wonders for my girl and is what I believe helped in bringing those ears up.

Shes about 7 1/2 weeks right now. I was just amazed at how much they changed over the past week. Her ears seemed to grow more than anything else lol. I know it depends on alot of things but I was just wondering if we were getting close. I havnt got her a kong yet but will in the future. I keep toys in her crate(which is working out quite well surprisingly) to chew on while Im at work and at night time.

If you copy and paste the Img link in photobucket your picture will appear in your post instead of a link to it.

Abby was about 4 months when hers were up to stay. Maybe it's because they are so BIG. Click on my avatar and you can see in my album.

wow!! those are some big ears. I know they go up and down but I'm thinking it might be really soon when they initially go up even though they will probably fall again.
