Just got a new one. How long does it typically take for both ears to pop up. Right now only one is up.

ETA: Female btw

This is a AKC pure bread with a champion mother in the blood line. Hope it pops up. Going to be pretty pissed if it doesn't.

IMO, asymmetrical ears are part of what makes that dog cool. I think she'll grow into them in 6 months or so.

Not with this breed. The ears are the coolest part.

That's a great looking pup. And to answer your question...I don't know.

We had a large male puppy from champion lines - we taped them up until they stood up on their own - there is a risk of cartilage damage if you don't - of course taping hurts when you have to change the tape - and they don't like the tape, generally.

No just picked her up yesterday. I doubt the breeder has been rubbing them. 9 others in the litter and she said most have popped up.

Then she'll be fine. Just don't touch them. Usually takes about 3 months.

Interesting. You tape them from ear to ear?

Most breeders and veterinarians will tell you that floppy ears are common while your German Shepherd is teething, which usually ends between 16 and 20 weeks. By then, the cartilage in the ear has become hard and strong enough for the ear to stand permanently.

Yeah she's only 10 weeks right now. I feel like they'll grow themselves out in the next month or so but still kind of worried.

I have one and it took awhile for his to stand up. I did spend a lot of time rubbing them though. I don't know if it helped or not but the breeder told me to do it so I did.

Yeah - we taped the ears up and then together.

He hated it.
