After a Chihuahua gets to know its owner, it will want to stick to its owner all the time. So how to train a Chihuahua’s ears to stand up? What should you pay attention to when training a Chihuahua? Let’s learn the relevant knowledge about training a Chihuahua with the editor!

How to train a Chihuahua’s ears to stand up?

1. The reason why the dog’s ears cannot stand up may be due to calcium deficiency. At this time, you should pay attention to supplementing the dog’s calcium. You can give your dog pet instant calcium supplement, which can supplement calcium and some trace elements, which can help your dog’s ears stand up.

2. Take the Chihuahua for a walk in dark places at night. When you see people or animals walking by, or when you hear strange noises, you will often prick up your ears and concentrate on staring or listening.

3. Often use alcohol cotton to rub the inside of the ears, or grab the fine hairs in the ears and pull them out one by one to stimulate the ears and accelerate their erection.

4. Use tape to stick to the inner surface of the ear to strengthen the vertical force. First cut a thin plastic pad, stick strong glue on one side of the cut plastic plate, and stick it on the inner surface of the ear (don't forget to wipe the dirt on the inner ear with alcohol cotton first and cut off the fine hair), and then stick it on it with a strand cloth. Strengthen fixation. Leave it on for 4-5 days before taking it off to avoid rot or damage to the inner surface of the ear. If the inner ear cortex is damaged by applying tape, you can apply violet liquid to treat it.

5. In addition, it is easier and more convenient to use the plastic tape on the packaging carton and use strong glue to directly paste it on the inside of the ear. (This is a more commonly used method now)

6. Another way to help your dog erect his ears is to use alcohol or iodine. Method: Cut the chili sticks into many 2X4CM pieces. Then first rub the inside of the dog's ears with alcohol to remove the oil in the ears. Then apply the chili stickers piece by piece to the inside of the ear in a layered manner, making the paste thicker. Wait until it falls off and then reapply it. The effect will usually be seen within a week. After applying it, you should play with the dog more. I used tennis balls to attract the dog's attention. Once it pays attention, the roots of the ears will become congested. Doing this often will help the ears to stand upright.

If your dog is very disgusted with the above training methods, don't force it. After all, you have to consider their feelings. As long as they can live a happy and healthy life, it doesn't matter whether their ears are upright or not.
