TW : ear cropping and posting
My first time posting here. My second doberman with cropping. We've been posting since summer. He's just over 5 months old. We last posted on Oct2. Posts came off 4 days later. We noticed a small hematoma at the tip of his ear. The last week, we've been massaging...
I’m sorry JanS, I just don’t understand the wrapping direction, tightness of the wrap around the post. I wish I had a top view drawing or video. I’m referring to this link:

Grimm almost 4 Mo old.
I posted at home for the first time and now his ears are so leaned that he can touch the tips together when alert.
I feel like giving up.
I feel like I've messed up.
Is this pockets?
Should I switch to breathe right srios or something?
Will baby powder keep the tape...
Hello I got a problem :/ my puppy is almost 9 month now and his left ears make problems. Always if he concentrate or use his muscles the ear goes to middle and stays very diagonally. Also to tip ( 1/3 of the uppers part of the ear) is almost really soft and wiggly. It is mostly layed in the...
Hi so I recently got a doberman, she is 5 months old and I picked her up when she was 11 weeks and already had her ears cropped. The breeder showed me how to post and I have been doing it ever since I got her. I am not quite sure where the breeder took her to get her ears cropped but I know she...
Hey, I got a problem. My Dobermann is almost 7 months. When he is inside and everything is normal his ears are perfect. If he is concentrating, walking outside or using his muscles, his ears go together in the middle. The stand together like a triangle or even cross. Especially the left ear is...
Hi this is chapo he is a European Doberman, 19 weeks old. He got his ears cropped by the vet his parents got their ears cropped by, recommended to me by his breeder. He got his ears cropped at 14 ish weeks old. This is him after his ears being cropped. Never seen a styrofoam type of block thing...
Hey there!
I have a an almost 4 month (16 weeks) doberman. Her ears have healed and I am beginning the struggle is posting. This is my first time.
I have looked at a lot of threads here and I think I have the method down, what I am stuck on is the positioning and how to stop them for being...
Hi everyone! Need some help. I have a 15 week old Doberman named onyx and we are currently posting his little ears. The shape and standing of the ears are going great, but for some reason every couple times I change the stays, when I take them off there is a green goo (snot like) that has...
Hello :)
I am having a problem with my Doberman’s one ear standing she is 7 months now and I have been posting religiously since she was 11 weeks old when I had the ears cropped . Her ears seam a little soft I started giving her vitamin to strengthen .
But still NO luck .
Please tell me...
Alright guys, so I’m going to keep this short, after having so much issues finding good tape in Europe and j&js becoming harder and harder to find anywhere, I have found what might be by far the BEST tape I have ever used!!!
I’m a firm j&js enthusiast, however since it wasn’t possible here I...
Her ears were cropped at 10 weeks. She is 3.5 months old now. I'd say that she has a medium crop. I have read that posting should continue until at least 6 months old. I think that this is because 6 months is the time by which the ear cartilage has hardened.
Posting has been difficult lately...
Hi! I have a 6 month old doberman named Weslie. I cannot get her ears to stand straight. I tried the breathe right strips and she ripped them off. Tampons, popsicle sticks, just tape. I am not sure how what to do to get the tops straight. They stand great and are on their own just the ends bend...
So long story short I’ve been terrible about posting, haven’t tried in something like 8mos and now my boy is 13mos. One ear stands and one flops. That one has been flopping for the whole 8mos, though his cartilage is still insanely soft and he can make that ear stand if it’s perked up. I stopped...
Hey all I’m going to start giving my puppy Ester - C vitamin c. He is 5.5 months old and the vitamin c is 1000mg per tablet. Should I start off giving him 500mg per day? Or 1000mg per day? And if 1000mg per day should I give it to him all at once or 500 in the morning and 500 at night? Thank you...
I just ordered some zonas tape online after seeing people say it’s really useful with ear postings. Just wondering what you guys think of it? Or if there is any other tape you recommend. All the athletic tape I get from the store seem to always unravel in a day or two! We have been using a...
I reposted my pups ears, and right away after I noticed the post is kind of sticking out the ear canal I thought I stuck it down all the way it must have got out when we were doing the taping.. my question is if it’s still fine how it is or should I redo it, because (to me at least) they still...
Loki’s wars are doing GREAT!! I’ll include a picture of his most recent bath time so you can see how the crop is looking.
I wanted some advice on what we should do for this upcoming week. My family has a lake trip scheduled, and of course Loki is coming. I don’t expect him to get into the...
Hi everyone!
Loki has been doing MUCH better with his ear postings. He sits still longer and isn’t afraid of me grabbing on them. I’ve been trying to normalize handling them everyday, even when they’re taped. I’ll grab them and wiggle them a little and give them a sniff while I’m there to make...
