Miniature Schnauzer Forum:
big ears

Looking for suggestions on how to get ears to fold over on a 3yr mini male adoped from shelter

I honestly dont think you will be able to. It is my understanding that the window of opportunity is only open while the pup is still growing. And even at a young age, this procedure involves uncomfortable taping, and you have to be really persistent in order to reverse nature. So my advice is to just leave the ears alone and love him as he is. I think its great that you rescued a mini from a shelter!!!! : o ) ( My mini has large ears too, but they do fold forward only at the upper third!! I tell her that maybe shes part bunny-rabbit! lol!)
