Bowdu’s ears have always been bigger than standard for a Shiba inu. Their floppiness made me question his breed “purity” as a puppy (and come to hate that word and all that it entails, a thought I will continue at another time).

His ears stood up by the second week he was with us. As he grew into his face and I encountered more Shibas from a variety of backgrounds, I concluded that his relatively large ears were a result of his haphazard breeding. At any rate, he does know how to make use of his auditory advantages…

Something’s on the other side of the fence… and Bowdu doesn’t need to turn his head to know it’s there.

I confess, just as I have a soft spot for dogs with curly tails, I am more drawn to dogs with pricked ears.
