RedKelpie Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 Just wondering the rough age of kelpies when their ears prick? Google is not being much help! Thanks :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I love goldens Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 Some dont! Our friends kelpie's ears only come up when hes listening to something- otherwise they're usually down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kavik Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 (edited) It varies - my dog's ears came up at around around 4 - 5 months. Edited February 4, 2013 by Kavik Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jumabaar Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 I have had pups with them up at 3 weeks to 14 weeks. They can sometimes also go a little floppy when they are teething. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TigerJack Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 In my limited experience I think that the show kelpies ears come up earlier. Seen pups come home at 8 weeks with ears already up. My working kelpies were around 6 months except for my boy who is now 2 years old and has very nice border collie ears. The tips never came up.

Nik Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 There's a litter at our farm at the moment who are roughly 6 weeks old. One pups ears are up and have been for a couple of weeks. The other two still have floppy ears. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
