PS
It didn't help her to listen to us properly, that took somemore time.

I don't have any puppy pics of Koenig. I wish I could 'blame' one of the breeders here for his GINORMOUS ears, as I'd love to track down his breeder,.... but anyways

Have you ever seen an full size DS who's ears flop at a run? Sigh. He looks like a dork.


We've got some huge ears over here.

Kelly.... I like his ears

WOW Jan! Those are BIG. And considering the fact that her adult ear size is very respectable, I think we can all look at large eared babies now and consider that there may be plenty of HOPE left for a less prominent-eared future.

Are you avoinding my question ma'am!! (I can ma'am you too!) Show us ears!!

Koenig, I can tell you why your ears flop But you are very cute anyway

Rochele- I like his ears too- but I've got a couple pics where he looks like he's a complete idiot with the full speed ahead- flop ear run.

Having been around sighthounds all my life, these are nothing when compared to an Ibizan or a Pharoah! I like big ears anyway. Down here in Texas, we can always use the excuse that it aids cooling in the summertime .

Hmm just got a link instead of an image--trying again with the big eared babies---I am jinxed with these photos.

I LOVE the first one syzygy! I'll have to get that view of Koenig. LOL.

Worked this time!

I am finally getting this to work. My XP and "Office" programs had none of the usual choices--no "resize photo" option anywhere--not even listed in "help." The normal procedures did not work on this system, so I am doing it by the back door. The only real hangup now is photobucket--takes about 30 minutes per photo to upload. If I ever get that nice digital camera, I need to move someplace where I can get cable and WIFI 'cause there will be a flood of pictures!

Thanks for the patience of everyone while I am figuring all this out.

I guess we need to rename this category "Ears."

Isn't that a funny one? I had a GSD mix once with HUGE ears so I named him Radar. They say if you peek between a horse's ears you can see ghosts and spirits. I wonder what you would see between Java's ears? A T-Rex?

I fear that Java got blessed with her sire Rico's ears. Rico being an Arras grandson, I fear he had no chance for small ears and so he passed his lack of chances on to his offspring.

@ Rochelle. Hope you don't mind the ear-banter. Your girls ears are a lot like my Yaska's. And when I bred Yaska to Arras....OMG. I got ears that will win any big eared contest. Most of us are poking fun at ourselves. Certainly not at your pups

Judith.... if you look at Zonya's pedigree, you will see that she is line bred 3-3 on Arras, AND has the Arras x Yaska breeding in there... so you are right, she had NO chance!!!!

Rochele, my Ziva looks a LOT like Zonya! I'll have to take a recent pic of her and post on here and try to compare
