  • @gigglez2111 It is very unhealthy for a german shepherd to NOT have ears that are up, ear wax and other things like dirt can get trapped and cause severe infection, taping helps this natural process happen faster and almost all vets recommend it for growing german shepherds. You are a dumbass for opening your mouth without knowing what the fuck your talking about.

  • To those who dislike because it is "cruel" consider this. By allowing the ears to flop they get a buildup and require more cleaning. Both the buildup and the cleaning are stressful to the animal. Taping helps the cartilage form and hold the ear up allowing for better airflow making for a healthier dog.

  • people are real idiots, unless you are a dog breeder and have had to tape years, you really should shut your mouths, I have been breeding dogs for years, Shelties, and Corgis and sometimes the ears need to be glued or taped to get the correct ear shape, it is not in humane to tape ears, as it does not hurt the dog.

  • @beastgunner1 THANK YOU. This is the same for many breeds that usually get their ears cropped. I think it's a positive choice. Like you said, not doing so can get dirt trapped and cause ear infections, its not solely cosmetic.. at all.

  • i loved this video the dog is cool and beauteful. it do not mater if this video has no sound it is still good.

  • No Sound? No talkthrough?

  • guys dont do it...i tape mu gsd ears and after i week it started crying and blood was everywhere...!!!

  • my dog is nearly 2 with 1 ear down . is it too late to try this?
