Question
hi there i have a 10weeks old female husky with a droopy right ear will the ear stay that way for the rest of her life?

Answer
No, ears usually will finally "come around" with a year.  If it is a purebred Sibe, the ears should stand erect, but it varies from dog to dog how long this takes.  Some pups have them fixed at two or three weeks old, other pups will have droopy ears for months.  In fact, it is not uncommon for the ear to be erect for a few weeks or even months, then droop again.  So don't worry - it's normal and just part of the dog growing.
