The ear thing

trapper66 · 03-02-2011, 03:06 PM

My puppy is 6months and had both ears up but left one has started to flop. She has just gotten spayed. Should I worry? I know we worry so when should I panic?

6 months...you are in a grey area. Since it's been up chances are it will go back up BUT it's getting late in the game. If it's important to you that they are up, I would give it some support. If you are good either way, it's a wait and see game.

I personally intervene (ear support) if they aren't up at 5 months.

This they were up nice so should I give a little more time? Any suggestions on how to support?

I use ear forms and Perma type surgical glue. I make my own forms. If you can find the material you can form it with a paint gun. Someone put a link on here once where you can buy them. Let me look for it and I'll post if I can find it.
