We used the breath right strips on Jada. She had one ear that the tip was drooping over a little. We usually kept it on about a week. My husband would take it off and then just keep an eye on the ear. If it started drooping he would put another one on. It is just a trial and error kind of thing until it gets strong enough.
Breathe right strips for ears?
Hi, everyone. I found the info on using breathe right strips for ears really interesting. It looks easy and I think I am going to try it on my 5 1/2mo Bella. Her ears stand up, but her tips are flopped. You guys are all saying its not too late, so i want to try. I saw your post with pic and explanation, easy enough. What I need clarified is how long do you keep the strip on the ear without causing any problems. like do I change the strip once a week? Dont adhesives breakdown skin if used long term. Or does she wear them part of the day? If someone can help me I would appreciate it. thanks:emo8:

From looking at your picture I really think that you should continue to post. She is still young and I really dont think that the breathe right strips are going to do the trick at this stage. I know that posting can be frustrating at times but trust me it will pay off. I would repost her ears.
Liza said:at what age do the ears actually set? to where you can't manip or adjust them anymore? Just out of curiousity. Always wondered.
btw...Belle is a cutie!
It just depends. Sometimes you can be done around 5 months of age and some dogs take longer. It just depends on the post, the ear crop and the length of the ears.
