When Do Cairn Terrier Puppies Ears Stand Up?

Q. "Hi. We got a Cairn puppy one month ago. She is now 3 months old. When did your puppies ears start to stand up and when did they finally finish completely stand up?" ~ Mary

A. "Hi Mary. Your Cairn pup is still young. I don't remember exactly when Molly & Jack's ears completely stood up, but give them time. As long as your Cairn is purebred, you'll see it happen soon. I'm going to guess they were 2-4 months old. Molly's ears took a little longer than Jack. Molly's happened gradually. I remember one ear was up and the other was down for about a week. Jack's ears seemed to stand up overnight. Cairn puppies (and adult dogs!) are a lot of fun, so enjoy them while they are young. I just look at Molly and Jack and I laugh. They are a delight for everyone who meets them. I wish you much happiness with your new Cairn puppy!" ~ Suzanna
