A dog's ears can change their natural set, particularly as a puppy. I would suspect your dog is quite young and that his ears were floppy but now are starting to firm up and stay upright. This is a function of development - the cartilage in the ear was not mature enough to support the ear in the upright position when the puppy was younger, but now the cartilage is strong enough to keep the ear upright.

Why are pit bulls ears cropped?
Just a guess, but it may be a holdover from dog fighting. Ears and tails may have been cropped because they were liabilities.That is an incorrect answer. The Pit Bull was a game dog originally used for hunting large game. The ears were cropped due to the fact that big ears make handles that can be torn and cause bleeding. AS for the "Fighting" you are way off base. Cropped Ears arent commonly found on "Fighting" Dogs as it leaves the ear opened and exposed which can lead to infection. Also tail docking in Fighting dogs...Also a NO a dogs tail gives them natural balance so Fighters didnt have their tail docked. Please if you are going to answer a question know what your talking people ask questions for a real answer not someone prejudice.
Is it bad to dock boxers ears?
of course! it's terrible! why would you cut an animal's ears off?!? It is a very painful process, and must be done when a dog is young. It used to be done for hunting dogs, or dogs that would be in combat, so that they would not get their ears ripped, or caught on anything, or latched onto by other animals. Now it is only done for breed standards, and serves no purpouse other then cosmetic. Alot of vets will no longer do this, anyhow. My opinion, but let your pup keep it's floppy ears, what are they hurting?
