Puppy Ears Floppy. Between 4 and 7 months of age, if your puppy is meant to have prick ears, they will usually stick up. But why do dogs have floppy ears in the first place?

It’s totally normal if your dog’s ears don’t both stand up and your gsd has one ear up and one ear down. Not only do their ears droop so much, they trip on them—they are also full of the cutest wrinkles. Some puppy's ears stay floppy forever, even if prick ears are characteristic of their breed.
