Training A Dogs Ears To Stay Down?

[j1985 1,983]

That's my weekend laugh sorted

 

Now if we're voting for the best answer: I like the idea of tying a brick to each ear, though of course they may end up twice as long as before and then there'd be a problem with the dog tripping over them.

My jack Russel has never been quite the same!!

This works, I tried it on a more intimate part of my anatomy,unfortunately, as age has overtaken me, there appears to be "no meat left in the sandwich",so I'm now reduced to 13" of wrinkles. I seem to have a mini elephant's trunk below and my partner now calls me not John Holmes the porn star , but John Merrick.

Ok firstly I have nothing to do with this so don't knock me but my ex's aunt who breeds smooth collie show dogs has asked for tips on how to get one of her dogs ears to flop. Apparently us "terrier boys" know better than most? Guessing its a show dog thing? Well I haven't a clue but I said I'd ask. Any help appreciated

 

Soften them with vaseline, and use ducting tape or super glue to hold them in place, apply the vaseline every day for a week......

Shoot the bugger then rehome the dogs

I knew I'd get some great ideas and you didn't let me down lol.

Shockingly she has tried a few of these and others including wrapping the dogs ears with paper machet, beyond me.

Cheers for the replies and PM's

There is something I watched once about America's show dogs they had the vet remove something in the ear too make it look the way they wanted it too can't think of what it was and can remember thinking why the f**k would any one bother if the ears don't match the breed then don't breed from it

Knew a Bulldog breeder years ago who used Copydex .........to do the same thing,common practice apparently to get the perfect rose ear

I can,t train a dog to lie down,never mind its lug.I asked a top Collie breeder and show judge and he said the best way was to get a 3" nail and nail them to its head for a few weeks,then bury whats left.
