Hi! I just got a super cute male english bulldog which I named Malone...he's just 6weeks old and is very playful. Anyways, i'd just want to know if there is a way to improve his ears since it's far from the perfect "rose ears", his is drooping. My friend said she heard there was a way to glue the ears in order to correct it as he is growing. Would you know how this is done or is there a better way? I trust this is a humane procedure, if its not then i'm definitly not for it. Any help is appreciated. Ty!

WAIT, WAIT, WAIT, Don't rush into anything drastic yet, pups who have ears that are normally erect can take some time to develop, I would give it at least 6-8 months, wait for him to grow a bit, I'm sure that they will be in their correct position in the next couple of months.

sorry I should have quoted, dogs who have ears that are normally erect, as pups, their ears droop.

thanks so much for the reassurance! i guess im better off waiting it out. it's just that he's so big already that i tend to forget how old he really is! he's just looks so much older than he really is, well compared to my other toy breed pups! but lets say his ears dont develop after 6 months, would anyone know what i can do to aid or help it to develop...i read something about glueing but how exactly do they do that?
