How old was she when you brought her home?

Oh ok. I have to admit, I've become so paranoid about the ears thing. Dutch's little ears don't look nearly as big as Shasta's were, but I'm guessing they grow quite a bit.

When Dayna's friend came over to meet the puppy, the first thing she did was grab on the ears and start rubbing and I was like

i'm paranoid about ears too. I always ask people not to mess with her ears when we're out and about and generally they do pretty good. I mean she's teething and her ears have been up the entire time so i know i shouldnt be concerned anymore but i think i'll stop being a pain about it after she turns one. That tip thats folded down on her right ear will never stand. but its cute!!! Shelby still has some pretty big ears on her and she's 18months old. Shasta's dad was HUGE. From her head size, she's got a good amount of growing to do so i expect to see those ears get bigger still. its okay to be paranoid about the ears.... its a GSD trademark!! but you'll love em all the same!

I'm trying not to be too paranoid because he hasn't even started teething, but it's REALLY hard

how were his parents ears? generally what i've learned was if their ears were standing, you really wouldnt usually have anything to worry about. How old is your pup?

He just hit 10 weeks today.

Mom and dad both had their ears up. I know I'm being too paranoid, but I can't help it lol

This picture is cute but it makes me sad because that's his mom and he won't get to see her anytime soon, if ever.

he's adorable!!!! I wish i'd been able to get Shasta when she was 8 weeks old. Would have been nice for sure. Next puppy i'll hopefully get at 8 weeks. Thats a nice picture of him with his mom though!!! Very cute.

He's adorable when he's sleeping... when he's awake; land shark.
