My 14 week GSD ears were up the other day, but now they are down. She is still teething, should I be concerned and what age should I tape them??

If the dog's ears were up, like UP, before teething, then they will come back up when the dog is done.
If you look at Ed's puppy guarantee there is a section about when to tape and a note mentioning something about teething, if I remember correctly.

Thomsen,
Vancamp is right, it's the teeth comming through, it's just pushing on a nerve! Nothing too really worry about <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />
All my GSD's went through it No worrys
Ed'd Puppy tape does mention the ears.
Be Safe!

I also have an ear question, is it ok to add it to this post? My GSD is 6 months old and one of her ears is not consistently up. it goes down, up, down, up... hahah, mostly it's up when she's excited or playing, but while she's eating or just being a dog. should we tape up that ear? if i need to make a new post, just let me know. thanks!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

If a pup does not have his ears up by 5 months I strongly recommend that you get involved with taping your dogs ears.
That was taken directly from Ed's page listed above. I don't think that is vague at all.
