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 bc my boy Enzo has been an absolute nightmare with posting, I’ve never been able to keep a post in for longer than 2 days and I got too frustrated. I talked to some other experienced Dobe owners on a FB group and some say there’s still a chance to get this ear to stand until he’s about 2?
I’m looking for thoughts on which method I should try? And if you think it’s not too late? Cannot get him to tolerate normal backer rod postings. Can’t decide whether to try half posts, zip ties or not, mole foam, just tape, or what! Even with Torbot he’ll immediately rip out posts upon being released, distractions or not. So I can’t figure out which method might be slightly less irritating to him. I would be insanely grateful for any opinions on what to try.
Including photos in case that helps so y’all can see the floppy ear!
