Hey everyone, I posted this over 2 years ago and I'm happy to update and say Grover's ears are up, up, up! It never became a problem. By the time we picked him up, both ears were up again and they never flopped down after that.<br />
Just wanted to update everyone!

there are so many things that you can do to help their ears come up; he's only 11 weeks, so you do have time, and yes, they don't seem to stay up as well while teething. my pup's came up, and days later were bent a bit, and eventually are straight up. if you have your heart set on this pup, and you feel he's the right pup for you; there's no way i'd trade that.

Yea they have vet tape now. We used it for Roxi's feet when she wouldn't stop using her back legs to scratch at her stitches.

I hope you find a good solution to this :) all in all - a puppy is a puppy hehe. I find it cute when I see some corgs with permanent ear flops. That's just something on the outside though.. I'm sure his personality would more then make up for one little ear umph. :)

Yes, I have even heard from a friend that a tick bit the ear and the ear went down for quite some time. Eventually after a time it came back up.

I had one Corgi that I had to tape his ears and it hurt me more than him. I felt like it was torture and vowed not to do it again. It was hard to get the tape off and we had to use acetone to remove it. That was over 30 yrs. ago and I am sure they have better tape and taping methods now. But his ears eventually stayed up. Next we had a Corgi whose ears were consistently up for 2 years. Then one morning we woke up and he had one ear up and one ear down. We called him our half a beagle half a…

Next we had a Corgi whose ears were consistently up for 2 years. Then one morning we woke up and he had one ear up and one ear down. We called him our half a beagle half a corgi. The breeder said that his puppy fighting with his sister might have damaged the cartilage. We loved him just the same. Then a few months later, or maybe even a year, it went up and stayed up. Go figure. Meantime, Sherlock is a cutie-pie.

I have questioned the ear thing myself, and have read on some site that when the pups start teething the calcium goes to the teeth and therefore the ears will flop. They suggested some calcium supplement for this to help the ears. I guess one could try it.

Hi<br />
I have heard that sometimes when puppies play and bite one another, that they can injure the ear of another pup(they do get rough with one another in play biting) This can cause the ear to be weak and may take longer to stay up, or in some cases may flop forever.

That's great! If they start to go back down just retape. Sometimes they will start to droop during teething since all the calcium is going to their teeth. Feeding a little extra calcium (such as some cottage cheese) can help with that. Finn's didn't go down during teething though so you may not see any changes. Congrats to you both!
