Ears flipping back

[Dawn]

A lot of times when Molly is playing one of her ears will flip back and I am always flipping them back down--it drives me crazy. Is this common with doodle ears??

[Adina P]

I think it's common because their ears are so big! I'm always happy when they flip over because I think "finally they have a chance to breathe!"

[Tante & Jordan & now Annie!]

Both of my dogs ears flip over,I will say to them "fix your crazy ears".*sigh* They don't.
I will after a bath take a hair clip and clip Jordan's ears up to help them to dry.
I agree with Adina, they need to breathe sometimes.

[Karen, Jasper and Jackdoodle]

Yep, common for poodles and doodles! And the others are right about the "breathing"; floppy ears with no air getting in is part of the reason these breeds get ear infections. She'll "fix" it herself if it's bothering her, it is going to happen all her life.
Perfectly normal & healthy, LOL!

Glad to know this! Lily's ears just started doing this too!

Cali's ears flip over a lot. It seem we are constantly telling her to "fix" her ears. It never seems to bother her.
