Vertical ears make the dog's ears stand up, giving people a feeling of agility and agility. Generally speaking, the ears of vertical-eared dogs are relatively small, which is mostly related to the breed of dogs. Ordinary dogs with vertical ears will stand up from the root of their ears to1/2 two months after birth; At 3 months, almost all ears are upright, but some ears are only half upright at 3 months. You must pay more attention at this time. If the dog's ears can't stand up completely after 6 months of birth, at this time, the dog's ears may not stand up naturally. Therefore, to ensure that the ears are upright, special care must be given to the ears from 2.5 months after birth.

The basic method of pricking up ears is: for big-eared dogs such as German shepherd or Yorkshire, when they can't stand up, they can carefully wipe the parts without long hair on their ears with absorbent cotton dipped in alcohol. After removing the dirt, stick tape on it, then stick a slender plastic bracket vertically, fix it with tape, and cut off the hanging part of the ear. After the operation, dogs often feel uncomfortable because of the tape on their ears. They often shake their heads uncomfortably and sometimes scratch the tape with their feet. In case the dog catches the bracket, it should be pasted again immediately, or a collar should be used after the operation to prevent the dog from catching it. It's settled. After 1 month, the dog's ears will stand up when the bracket is removed.

In addition, you can roll a piece of cardboard into a chimney and put it on the inside of the ear, wrap a bandage around it, or fix the plastic ear shape on both ears. As long as it is fixed, the dog's ears will stand up after about 1 month.
