Hello ther all.. Im new here and this is my first post.. I have a 7 month old german shepherd and her ears dont stand up yet. They flop to the sides loke a lab. However when we go outside or rabbit hunting they are up most of the time. Do i need to worry about taping them or should i give it time. I have heard that some take up to a year to stand up . any help is appreciated thank you...
I think I would probably tape at this point, just to make sure that the cartilage doesn't develop any breaks in it. I used foam hair rollers in the ear and wrapped around those. Be very careful not to wrap too tightly and not to pinch or fold the ear edges.
Go to my list of training articles. I have written an article with photos on how and when to tape GSD ears. http://leerburg.com/articles.htm You will have to look it up I dont have time at the moment
