When Puppies Ears Stand Up: Helpful Information for Dog Owners
If you're new to handling a puppy, you might be interested (and interested) in learning when these little ones' ears stand up.
The first thing to say on this topic is that the time frame varies depending on the breed.
For example, if you own a husky or a husky, the ears will stand up in 1.5-2 months, while in Yorkies you should expect changes after 3 months, and in German shepherds - in 12-16 weeks.
Deviation in either direction is acceptable. It does not exceed 6 weeks.
Another important note: some factors can slow down or even stop this process.
These include the pet being a non-purebred animal, the puppy being large, having a weakened immune system, teething, stress and mineral deficiencies.
By the way, if your ears have already stood up, don’t rush to rejoice – sometimes they can fall off.
Such changes are observed due to the change of teeth. After some time, everything will return to normal, but if the situation does not return to normal, contact your veterinarian.
