I have a question about my Pup Jäger. We had a little setback with pockets and following the vets posting method at first. After a discussion on here we corrected this issue using backer rods and bumpers. He is about 7 months now and I am not sure if his ears are done yet or not. If I take the posts out they stand good for about a week and a half and then something weird happens. He will be asleep on his left ear for a while and when he wakes up it looks like it is folded over, kinda like his ears need to go back up. However, by the time I finish making posts it stands up with the other one and is strong for the rest of the day. This doesn’t happen every time he sleeps but does happen some mornings. At first I put him back in posts immediately and keep them posted for about 4 days. But the last time I wanted to see if it stayed strong without posts. His ear doesn’t stay droopy for more than 10 minutes or so. But I don’t want his ears to fail in the long run. I do not have a picture of them during this time but I do have a pic after he gets it back up that I will post below. I don’t know if this is a normal thing that can happen with dobie ears or if I need to keep posting. He has gotten pretty good at getting the posts out at this point, I think he is just telling me he is tired of it lol.
