    Hey all!

    I have a question about my puppy's ears. Just general background info, we adopted Obi from the humane society a few weeks ago. However, with any adoption, the humane society had to give their best guess as far as breed goes. They said Obi was Labrador retriever/mix.

    When we took him home when he was 13 weeks his ears were still pretty floppy. Now at 17 weeks, they have started to change. We're not sure if this is because he teething or if it's becahse whatever he's mixed with.

    Does anyone have some insight? I'm happy with his ears up or down, but I'm mostly wondering if they will go back to floppy in a few months. Thank you!

    Hi AnnieBananie,
    Tough one as quite a unique question - but my suggestion would be that the changing ears are due to your dogs breed and not to do with teething? German Sheps, Collies, etc have changing ears as they grow up from puppies to adult. If this is something you are concerned about / is effecting your pup, then like always go and get some advice off the vets.

    Thanks,
