Please tell my hubby it will go back up before he goes and buys eyelash glue, popsicle sticks and breathe-rights…..

It seems like Hank went through a few days of this between his tepee ears and then his ears standing up full time.

Yes they will do that, each side of the cartilage is taking turns trying to firm up. How old is he, he still looks young enough that he is fine.

I love the wacky ear stage! My dog's went up and down, then tepee and for a while was signaling a left turn. My husband was hoping Stosh would have one floppy ear but alas, it went up eventually. Keep giving lots of chew sticks, a knuckle bone, etc. My vet suggested making kissy sounds so the ears would pick up and strengthen the muscles.

Oh he's just a baby! I have leftovers in the refrigerator older than that.

13.5 weeks! You're husband only needs to buy eyelash glue, popsicle sticks and breathe right strips if they are for him. The puppy sure as heck doesn't need them!

That's great!!!
I went thru the ear crop process with the boxers….. Forms for a couple months, and eventually all came out ok…..
Hubby is a little worried…...
