Many owners of dogs like the German shepherd panic when they find that their puppy's
ears are not standing up. Remember that a dog's ears can take even upto a year to stand up. Sometimes, your dog may be so furry that the weight is simply too much for the ear to stand! Some owners take to
'taping' the ears to encourage them, while others shave them.
'Shaving' is recommended for long hair breeds' such as
Biewer Yorkie or the
Yorkie (Yorkshire Terrier). We also suggest that you do not caress your dogs' ears.

Take plenty of pics when the first ear stands up! You will cherish them forever.
A little advice from a dog lover - This may sound ridiculous, but unless you're planning to enter the dog into a show, love your dog for what they are. They have their own personality, and you can get by with accepting their flaws. After all....they accept yours don't they?
