How long does it take for a chihuahua's ears to stand up?

Answer 1

My Westie puppy is a little over 9 weeks old and both his ears are up.

Sweetlolly11 says: Somewhere beween 2,5 and 3 months. Some raise them in 4 months, but after that if at least one ear isn't up, you should go see a vet

Answer 2

I met my Westie's litter when he was about 6 weeks old, and their ears were already standing up, but I think it probably depends on the dog, because I've seen pictures of little, little guys like mine with stand up ears, and I've seen ones a little bigger than my guy (don't know the age) with ears that are still floppy.

Answer 3

Yes, they will stand up it's just now the bones in it's ears aren't strong enough!!!! I have a Yorkie shes one!!! Her ears didn't stand up until she was 14weeks old!!!!! So don't worry they usually will stand up between 14-20 weeks old so do not worry!!!!!

Sorry to be a bubble buster! I have had two gorgeous westies - Casper ... curly coat (!) and floppy ears. Rosie - ears like windsocks both upright and fully directional at 12 weeks ... love them all :)

Answer 4

Our Westie's ears were already standing up at 9 weeks. Some puppies do take longer though. If you have children, make sure they are not petting the puppy's head roughly ... that could weaken or break the cartilage and make the ears not stand up.

Answer 5

well, i cant really say because they can unflop any time, like my westie's ears stood up when it was about 7,8,9 months old, but it doesnt really matter, but they will DEFINITELY unflop eventually.

Answer 6

It takes about 12-24 hours for the Doberman's ears to stand.
