to witter on again about Caius' ears but his right ear is absolutely perfect but the left is still floppy with a crease in it . As much as we love him to death and wouldn't swap him for the world I am still hopeful that we can have a positive result.

We are still taping the left ear but I have been doing some more research about GSD ears and have found that hyaluronic acid gel massaged onto the ear and Knox Gelatin and glucosamine added to their food can be beneficial.

Does anyone have any experience with these products or know of anyone who has used them? I would be extremely grateful for your input guys

Thanks in advance

Never heard of any of them sorry hun

Bryn had a wonky ear for a long time, he still does have when he first wakes up butit slowly goes back after a few yawns

Hope somone has some better advice soon

Aww bless him, ive never heard of those methods to get ears standing straight

I'm not sure if it would work but have you tried calcium tablets as well

While you're exploring other options i would keep taping his floppy one up sorry I can't be more help to you Hun

i have never heard of it, i would try taping his ear for a longer length of time, sorry can't help more ,

Sorry im not much help either

Thanks girlies we are still taping. the little sod has his ears up perfectly when out playing its when he's in the house it tends to go down. Its his left side which was the worst affected by the mites and its as if he held it down as its more comfortable. We're wondering how we can help him to break the cycle of keeping it down. Any ideas?

I'm beginning to run out of ideas but I'll never give up hope of my handsome fella having both his ears upright all the time

aww bless ya hun ... ive no idea what to tell you

No idea here sorry but I quite like the ears any old how, up down bit here bit there

Gonna try some gelatin (to strengthen cartilage) and some of this http://www.natural-animal-health.co.uk/cortaflex/canine_cortaflex.php to see if it all helps.
