In some poodles, yes, it's down to genetics. It's like how in humans, some people can roll their tongue, and others can't. In poodles, floppy ears is the norm, but some, usually toy poodles, can prick their ears and make them stand up.

Do some blue heeler's ears not stand up?

They will eventually stand up on their own, although the exact age is different with every puppy. I have seen a few that had one ear stand up completely and the other ear stand up only part way.

German Shepherds' ears typically stand up on their own as they grow, usually by 6 months of age. If your puppy's ears haven't stood up by this age, you can try posting or taping them to help them stand. If the ears still haven't stood up by around 8-9 months, it's less likely they will naturally stand on their own.

Why do someYorkies ears not stand up?

Some Yorkies' ears may not stand up due to a variety of factors, including genetics, age, and health. Puppies often have floppy ears that may stand as they grow, but if the cartilage is weak or if the dog is still teething, the ears may remain down. Additionally, certain bloodlines may have a predisposition for softer ear cartilage. Proper nutrition and ear care during the puppy stage can also influence whether the ears stand up.

If you want to support their ears standing up, you can try massaging their ears regularly and ensuring they have a healthy diet with adequate nutrients for ear cartilage development. However, it's important to remember that not all Cairn Terriers' ears will stand up and it's best to appreciate them for their natural appearance.
