What should I do if my German Shepherd's ears don't stand upright? The reason why my German Shepherd's ears don't stand upright may be due to lack of calcium. You can usually eat some calcium powder or shrimp skin or bone soup to supplement calcium; wipe the inside of the ears with alcohol every day and use external stimulation to make the ears stand upright; if Food supplements and external stimulation are of no use. You can buy an ear erecting device to help German Shepherd ears erect.

1. The lack of erect ears in German Shepherd dogs may be due to lack of calcium. When you want to supplement calcium for German Shepherd dogs, you can supplement calcium by eating some calcium powder or shrimp skin or bone soup. It is recommended to start giving calcium supplements to dogs when they are three months old, because that is when the bones begin to develop. You can appropriately feed a variety of foods such as cooked egg yolks, bone soup, dried shrimps, carrots, and apples to ensure a balanced nutritional profile for your dog.

2. Often use alcohol cotton to rub the inside of the ears, or grab the fine hairs in the ears and pull them out one by one to stimulate the ears and accelerate their erection.

3. Purchase an ear erecting device and wear it on the puppy’s ears to assist in erecting the ears.

4. Take the puppy for a walk in dark places at night. When puppies see people or animals walking by or make strange noises, their ears will often stand upright to focus on staring or listening.
