Just wondering murphy's ears don't stick up and I was wondering if later on his ears are going to just pop-up or do they have to have those cute bat ears when they are babies too??? -

They will get up there eventually, when Ozzy was younger he had floppy ears too....so cute though

It is pretty adorable, he's really big on cocking his head to the side and flopping them around . I just wasn't positive on if his ears would do it on their own or not

his ears will stand eventually....just give it time and you will see. My bt's ears were floppy for the longest time. They will stand. What an adorable pup!

Wow, cute pup, Angie

Not to sound like an echo, but little Murphy's ears will stand up before too long. Make sure you take lots of pics while he's little

His ears may not stand... Depends on his genetic makeup.

Boston puppies ears will begin to go up at about 3 months of age or sometimes sooner if they are going to go up at all. They will then curl back or flop forward at the tips and go up and down until they are about 6 - 8 months old.

While the puppies are losing thier puppy teeth and gaining adult teeth thier ears will go up down as the teeth and growing bones are taking alot of the calcium they need. During this time, if the puppy's ears do not look strong enough to stand you can tape them up to help support the cartiledge and help it stiffen in an upright position.

here are a couple of links that explain how to tape the ears:
