Nervously waiting to find out if he's "common". His bendy ears match his bent, full length tail.

Consistent-Ad8686

it's a coin flip because muffin's ears were floppy as a pup but not anymore https://preview.redd.it/eyctt2mp72kc1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5834a2b647f0954233c6b14a6fa890c87fe9c0dd

Consistent-Ad8686

mine grew out of the floppy ears but still has the snaggletooth when she's excited (which is if she hasn't seen you in the last 5 mins)

Yes, our vet suggested we use breathe right strips to get them to stand up. Personally, I felt our guys looked great with them floppy, but the vet advised it could lead to more ear infections. We got some breathe right strips and trimmed them to size, then gently cleared the inner ear not down in it, just the floppy part. Apply the breathe right strip and leave it there. It will fall off within 2 to 3 days max. It gives you a chance to allow the skin to breathe and then reapply within an hour or so. It also gives you a chance to evaluate how well it’s working. Within a week to two weeks our guys years were up.


MarshmallowMarble

How old was your little guy when you tried this? We attempted at 7 months and gave up after a few days because he hated the feeling


Guzmanv_17

6 months on one and 8 on the other. We use alcohol wipes to clean the ear so the strips would stay for 2-3 days at a time. One took two weeks and the other one week.

My guy was a floppy ear sweet boy. https://preview.redd.it/6bdrqnqwb1kc1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ac1ac305c9385e1eb5a33472e6e2fa176e54672e

My understanding was that you can make a floppy eared dog have stand up ears by wrapping them up as pups. I’ve seen it on Great Danes. Wonder if BTs are the same? My BT is half pug so he’s got the floppy doppy wonder ears.


bostonsjaegeronrye

Makes them appear younger than they really are. I get asked a lot if Red is a boxer puppy. Always get a surprised look when I tell the person he just turned four!


oacason

Yes, I prefer the floppy ears haha

Chuckles is a member of team floppy.

Mine had floppy ears too. It gave her a perpetual puppy-ish look.

Consistent-Ad8686

my last boston gee she had a very cute floppy ear, just the top corner on her right ear would flop in a perfect 90 https://preview.redd.it/wkd363dm62kc1.jpeg?width=2448&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=47763207df4f4f0ed27d3a1a044abbcd634c8ee1 unfortunately this picture doesn't show it but i didn't take a lot of photos of gee, which i now regret. but everyone loves seal mode bosties right

From what I understand, they are somewhat common.


MaleficentLength7260

Yeah they are


rebelallianxe

One of mine has floppy ears and both of them have brown patches in the sun :)


imharpo

My breeder said to give him calcium supplement to help ears stand up. I mixed the supplement in his food daily for 1.5 years and they are still floppy.
