Pups' ears do sometimes stick up at funny angles when they are teething, but your pup is too young to be teething yet (4 to 5 months as a rule) and if the ear is hurting her you need to get to the vet in case there is an infection in there: bad infections can cause all sorts of problems and even make the dog deaf if bad enough, let alone causing a lot of pain: get it sorted asap.
