Eras Opinion

Right ear is completely up, should I get worried about his left ear??
He is 5 months old and there haven't been any changes in his ears for one month...
Can you please give me some advice?

Thanks!

 A bigger picture...

He's handsome!
Don't worry his ears are up to stay, don't mess with them leave them alone,

give him marrow bones to chew on & it will exercise the muscles around his ears, they will

eventually stop leaning in on each other......

 

Such nice eyes!!!!

I second that, its "over-up" and will correct itself soon.

Very handsome guy!

He is fine for only 5 months, they will come up and down in the beginning.
Be a good time to buy a black kong and let him chew on that.

I don't want to alarm you ........... and more than likely what everyone here said is true .......... but this was a puppie of mine at 5 months



and today it is much the same .......... he can put it up but it still definately leans toward the other



That said ........ I'm not sure doing nothing is the answer.  I tried ..... breathe right strips .......... he was great with those during the day ...... but would rip em out at night ........ so needless to say I was less than successful.    It's very likely that your dog has thicker ear leather than mine .............  since I'm not sure they can get any thinner without being see through.   Not sure how I got that lucky .......... but nonetheless.  Anyway ......... with out being able to judge the thickness by the picture ........... "don't worry about it"  might not apply to all cases.

I posted it in a different message..

Thanks for your comments!
I donk think its a problem of the ears being too thin...they're thick...
My worries are because for the last 2 months there have not been any changes in his left ear at all...
The ear is hard and he's able to move it...if it wouldn't have that fold in the inner side, the ear would stand correctly...
I don't know if I expressed it clearly, my English is not very good...
However, i'll post a new picture if I see any changes!
Thanks again!

My girl had a  crease  in one ear too at that age , and it never went out completely.  Her ears stand and all, but the slight kink will always be there now.  When she puts her ears back it folds in that spot still.  You can probably see it a bit if you look closely at her photo...  her ear leather is a bit thin though.  Maybe heavier leather would have straightened it out.
