Shelties ears

To get that pretty, tipped shelties ears, we need to make it that way through ear taping.  Most people think the ear just happen to be tipped and will stay that way.  To get those pretty ears, it usually takes time and perseverance.  Some people do it for a month thinking they got it only to find the ears standing after that.  And if you leave it  and then decide to tape it again later, it wont work.

I usually start doing the ears when the pups are about 2 months old and we have to constantly monitor it.  Some are done as quick as 6 months and some maybe a little longer than that.

It is pretty simple to do.  Today I took Whitley's tape off to check his ears and it is looking good.  Another month or two and it should be perfect.

I took some pictures of him today to show you his ears.






Whitley and Patrick are best of pals.  They never get tired of each other.  When Whitley and Patrick was at the groomer once,  Whitley whinned a little because he wanted to play with another dog but he was getting groomed.  Patrick was at the other end and heard Whitley, and he thought Whitley was in trouble and he came running to him, hahaha..




Look at the two buddies playing.  Whitley's mouth is IN Patrick's  mouth!! hahaha...Dont worry they are not hurting each other, they are just playing.




Whitley looking at the others and said HELP!!

The weather has been pretty ok today.  No rain but it is really humid.  Have a wonderful evening!
