We had a great dane and were not planning on cropping his ears (and never did his tail) because we like the natural look...but we ended up having to crop them when he broke one and it flopped in his eye all the time...

To shape them after they were cropped....we got supersized tampons in cardboard...left the cardboard on...put them in/on his ears with the rounded side down and the string at the top, and then taped his ears....you should have seen this black great dane running around with tampon strings sticking out the tops of his ears!!

If I knew where the pics were, I would post them...

I am glad you are leaving her ears alone....they are HER uniqueness and personality for sure!!

I promise she WILL grow into those ears! They always look so uncoordinated and dorky at that age. Please post another pic in a few months so we can see how she's developed.
