I'm sure this has been asked before, but I can't seem to find an answer on the "search" thing.

Do all whippets ears end up folded prettily to the sides?

DeeDee's ears are folded over, like a Jack Russells at the moment, not whippety at all. In fact, one of our neighbours actually asked if she was a Jack Russell pup!! :blink:

I notice on a lot of people's pics on here that a lot of the puppies also have "terrier" ears. Is this something that changes? Also I've never seen DeeDee's being sticky uppy bat ears like some others I've seen, so is this something that'll happen when she's older too?

However they end up, I'm sure I wont be able to stop stroking them, they're so soft and silky! :wub:

Here are her "Russell" ears showing to their floppy best :D

The above two topics have a lot of info about ears.  :thumbsup:   Don't worry, it's quite normal for a puppy.


But i like puppy ears :'(

Alfie had funny ears until he was about a year and his ears both stick up at times so he resembles a fox , although when they are folded down close to his head we call him "womble" as in wimbledon common.

Cute :b
 
charlie an dylans change from curled neatly to poking up all the time and change direction too! they like havin em tickled an scratched aswell!
 
Thank you for the links Jok, not sure why I couldnt just find them myself! :blink:

Interesting read, seeing all those lovely ears :D I think that bat eared dogs look just as lovely :wub:

Guess it's just a matter of wait and see then.
 
Shes just so gorgeous :wub: :wub: .... but please behave yourself for your mam. :D :thumbsup: :luck: :luck:
 
William has a silly habit of lolling his head backwards off the sofa so that his ears dangle down all pointy! He looks like a fruit bat :D
 
Dee Dee is sooooooo adorable :wub: :wub: :wub:

All mine had the wayward ears when puppies and now they are all different Kanes still got his :wub:

Ears usually sort themselves out when they have finished teething, they do do some pretty strange things in the meantime though. Cute picture.
 
I think all hope is gone for Mac. Both parents have standing up ears... But then again, they run very fast! Both were very successful non-ped racers, so...

My boy has at some point in his past had his ears clipped :( ..the people I rehomed him from (his third home!!) said as I was leaving with him ' he's had his ears clipped so he can't be shown again' ....very odd??? I don't really understand why this was done as he left his first home (the lady that used to show him) beacuse of being badly hurt by the other dogs in the house and so he had a big scar anyway...and why would someone want him not to be shown again??

Here's the boy..................covered in eau de fox poo!! :x
