Staffy Ears...

This is chase when he was about 5 months old...



His ears are still pretty similar to this, his heads just bigger, well his bigger in general, his now nearly 8 months (on the 24th of this month) but his ears still hang like this.

My question isssss, when did you start to see your staffys ears look more like staffy ears if that makes sence? His ears still seem too big for his head.

Sumtimes they * up like in my avatar, but not all the time...

They always seem to look different

i would push them back every time i saw it but saying that his ear may be just like that

May look like what? Big and floppy

Moo's are big and floppy whats wrong with big and floppy ears????????

I love his ears....he is proper cute.

love his ears....he is proper cute.

For some reason I can't see the pic! But they all have different ears! Bandit had the perfect semi-rose ear, or half-pr.ick, and his were like that virtually from day one, but it really depends on his genetics. They can change a lot up to about 12 months old.

If you look at his parents' ears you should have an idea of how his ears are likely to end up.

Molly's were and still are like this at 14 months old.

I can see them changing slowly, But its hard to notice when you see them everyday.

It seems like as his cheek muscles are getting bigger, his ears are standing up more, But maybe they just look smaller in comparison to his head as it gets bigger lol.

He starting to look older now, his face is starting to get some nice definition and all them staffy muscles are bulking out.

Um so impatient to know what his gunna look like!

my 2 ears were well flopy when they was puppy age, but seem to grow into them as they got older...

i not worry about it,not much you can do about it....

wot will be will be...... or wot ear will be ear....

he still looks cracking

his ears look lovely

Yeah I agree, they look lovely !! Jethro's ears looked like that while he was a youngster.. then one day they just changed.... All staffys look adorable whatever shape their ears !!

its funny how staffys ears vary so much, thers a girl over the park sumtimes with a staffy whos ears stand up all the time, looks like hes always shocked lol.

I like his floppy ears, but dont think ther gunna be floppy for very long, ther starting to * out a bit.

Awww I think his ears are great it makes him the dog he is

Ill try get an up to date picture of him soon, ill put them next to eachother n see how much his really changed!

I dont think you see the change as much when you see them everyday.

My pups ear's have always stood up and flopped at the top .. i see some staffs with ears like vinnies .. some had ears like your's and others with 1 up 1 down etc

I love his ears! They look so nuzzle-able!

Butkus's ears were like that until his head started splitting as he grew up. By the time he was a little over 1yr they seemed better suited to his head size.

Stans were the same he had big floppy ears.Still big and ones still floppy at times lol

Lola's 'doingy' ears!





Lolas ear back

she needs to pin down them ears in a big wind or it won't be flying pigs we have to look out for cutie

floyd had perfect ears up until 3 months old then one day one started flopping the other way! his sister who lives in my street has totally different ears, she has half pricked, floyds are, 'were' rose,

I asked vet he said the ear cartilage is full of water at that age and could correct itself or not, 'crazy ears' on pups are common in most breeds of dogs.

before


after

Ha!! She's started jumping to catch the frisbee so maybe it would be best to weigh her down!!

I would agree, I love all ears I've seen.. but I do LOVE my girls pricked ears 24/7

My dad's nickname for Lola is gizmo from gremlins!

My staffy is 4 months old and his ears are the same big and floppy I love them and hope they stay this way i like it better than when they fully stick up
