A chi's ears will often stand and fall many times before standing permanently. I would wait at least a year before I begin to worry...some are just slow :-) But there are methods that can hurry things along. The idea is to strengthen the ear muscles. One of the easiest is to tape the ears up. I personally have not done this, but I have heard great things about it. Many people use the breathrite strips, taping them to the ears for a 2 week period......I can ask for details from someone who has done it if you want. Marsha
