Oh! ...look at those ears....I mean...look at those lovely stripes! :mrgreen:
(just teasing you. Those are big ears, and I have personally bred my share of those too, so I hope you have a sense of humor)

Tell us about yourself: I live in North Monterey County, CA with my husband, three step kids, one gorgeous and wonderful Dutch Shepherd and a whole bunch of livestock type animals. The humans are into sustainable farming, the dog is into chasing deer and digging up gophers. My day job is an Operations Supervisor at Santa Cruz Regional 911. One of these days, I'm going to get another DS.

EEEEEARS! I love big ears. So, is that a fault? Should ears be smaller? Please educate.

When they are young their bodies are not yet into the right proportions which makes that there ears look very large compared tot the head aswell as there legs do. After about one and a half years everything seems to be in the right proportion.

Nehhhhhhhhh. Big ears is not a fault. But I think the official DS ear should not be GSD size. ;)
@ Rochelle. Oops...that first pic of Zonya. WOW. :o 8-)
@ Marjolein. Go cook your own blues ;) and please post a pic of Dingo for ear-reference.

Thanks Marjolein! 8-) Neat 'little' ears. All of them. :lol:
Mr Nico has a very polite size ear. He spoiled me to the more acceptable size, but I will take any ear, any day, (as long as it is standing) on a good working dog. :mrgreen:

Thanks for the ear comparison. I see what you mean now. I have always had a deep love for my big eared Dutch Warmbloods, I think I'll like my Dutch dogs the same way!
