I have to say emphatically do not tape a puppies ears unless you know what you are doing????I have seen more puppies with ruined ears from pulling too tight the tape and ruining the cartlege..If you think your pups need taping call an expert...I wait until 4 months and have had the biggest ears come up..Do not leave the puppy with other dogs they can tear the tape and do damage..Barbara Amidon http://www.geocities.com/amberkennel ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2006.
