As you know, dogs are different. Representatives of the same species differ not only in the size, thickness of their fur or the length of their muzzle, but also in their ears.
Today we will tell you about breeds that stand out from others with their large ears.
Cocker
There is an English and an American Cocker Spaniel, but they have one thing in common – long oval ears covered with soft, silky hair. Those who have ever met such dogs know that their ears are hanging.
Cocker Spaniels are active, playful and friendly. They have a well-developed hunting instinct. These dogs are very attached to their owner and are sad when left alone.
Basset Hound
The Basset Hound is a hound breed of dog with long, velvety ears that are set below eye level and hang down along the neck.
If you are lucky enough to own a Basset Hound, you will enjoy the sociability and playfulness of your pet. However, you should be prepared for the fact that the dog can be stubborn and pursue its own interests.
Beagle
You can recognize a beagle by the following description: a hound dog with large, rounded ears that hang down, lying close to the cheeks. An interesting fact: the beagle's elongated ear cloth reaches the tip of its nose.
Among breed experts, beagles have received the nickname "cheerful good-natured creatures." These companion dogs often become nannies for children and loyal friends for their owners.
Finally, speaking about the “eared ones”, one cannot help but mention the active and cheerful Shih Tzu with large hanging ears, and the decorative Papillons, whose ears resemble the spread wings of a butterfly.
