Question
I have a 5 mn. old matipoo and we have noticed one ear sticks out to the side, upon examining the ear we found an extra fold at the back of the ear.  we just want to know if this common to either breed.  We have had poodles in the past without this.

Answer
Any drop-earred dog can have problems with its ears during teething, just as can happen with upright ears. That ear should be taped or glued to try to get it into place. There is no guarantee that this will work, but doing nothing will not improve this ear either.
