Only 1 ear up

[Disavio]

Hi everyone,

Cooper is an almost 4 month old sable and it is cute seeing his 1 ear up. The other one does not seem to rise too much at this point - is there something that I can do - the foster mother explained me that chewing could help.

Any feedback is appreciated,

Mike

It might make you feel better or something but my dog didnt have her ears fully erect up until she was 7-8 months.

Thanks for sharing that it is much appreciated. I guess, I should be little more patient then. My next question, if I may: is it quite normal that 1 ear could go up first?

My first GSD had her ears already up at 8 weeks, so Cooper is our first one

I've been reading a lot about this because my pup is 4months and his ears hadn't stood up at all. Everything I've said has said to wait til 8 months and or til after their done teething (for their adult teeth) and if their still not up then you should consider taping/gluing/breath-right-strip-ing the ears.
Right now if my pup has his ears up it's hardly ever both, it's just the left or the right and it only stays up for a minute or if I'm lucky three. But he's only four months so I've learned not to think too much of it.
