Question
how do you get a miniature dobermen pincher's ears to stand straight up

Answer
The only way a Min Pins' ears will stand up is when they are cropped. This is usually done as juveniles, like weeks old, and requires a lot of patience, trips to the vet and pain for the dog.

It is not a breed where they stand up straight normally on their own.

Most people do not put them through the pain of ear cropping anymore because it's such a huge pain for the owner too, but in a different way!
