I think his ears look great for only being taped not posted. Now he's fighting having tape on his ears, he gets it off within 2 minutes
He has a beautiful head, so it would great to keep those ears up! 
3 months vs 5 months

What maker/model model ecollar, btw?)
(I'm returning my Dogtra for warranty repair- very dependable and easy to use but second one "keeled muh battree"
-seems vulnerable to any salt water so...asking around)

Thank you! Always leopard lol
It’s a cheapy one off Amazon. A friend of my got it for her Doberman and it worked fine. It is water resistant for so many hours, but she’s not submerging herself typically. I keep it on a 4 for shock it’s nothing and if she’s not listening increase. It beeps and vibrates too. Simple and works well.

I have the Mini Educator, and it claims to be fully waterproof....I have not tested that. But it's a great E collar. I had a Dogtra years ago...went with this based on reviews on here 
Ya we started with a mini Educator and found it a little too complicated for us (if you are a pro trainer its great) and I think the bat-tree was old in box on shelf plus only 1/4 mile advertised and seemed to fail at less....I have the Mini Educator, and it claims to be fully waterproof....I have not tested that.

I was Not sure I could get a recall running off down the beach after birbs. The old dogtra was better but also subject to salt water corrosion. The new one advertises 1/2 mile and better charging...but getting wonky; so we will see.
We dont always put it on, only trails and even then very rarely need it. But when ya do, it needs to work...
I think we are harder on gear than average...
Great pics @JanS
Great photos! I love how they like to follow their noses skyward into trees.
That top photo, he looks a year old already LOL! I don't know about height for age, but they do tend to grow up quickly in height, then fill out. I only measured mine after I found out this easy-peasy trick - a zip tie just snug enough on a yard stick and use it like a horse measuring stick, sliding the zip tie down to meet the withers. Asha is at the highest end of preferred height for bitches. But to add, I think her height was established way before her gangly self filled out.

If you haven't seen this thread, you can go back through the years with tons of puppies growth records. Most are by weight but a few are by height. And you can jump in with your puppy as well. Fun place to also see how very different these pups can be, and so many end up being "about the same" by 2 years, even though they were way smaller or bigger their first year.
Asha has never ever laid down on a slab of concrete unless told to. Grass, dirt, rug or bed, yes. No tile or concrete, even a wood floor is looked at with disdain.
