    And also, I think most of us use the term glue when we really mean tape.

    It is a personal decision. Cleveland's ears were pricked and he was just adorable. We taped MMM's and he is just adorable.

    We do not shop big boxes and we refuse to eat a western diet or anything bought from a traditional grocery store but these are personal decisions and values that cannot be imposed upon others.

    It's all personal choices.:yes:

    Agility and ears?

    If I do not glue Sunny's ears can she still run in agility competitions?? I do not want to show her, I would rather let her run :)
    Anyone know?

    Absolutely! Your dog doesn't even have to be purebred to run in agility competitions, much less meet the AKC standard. Our agility dog Bentley has prick ears (pointy) because we gave up with the tape/glue.

    Yea, I would rather not go through the hassle (and the wallet) to glue her ears. I like her just the way she is. :)
    Thanks Corbinam!

    Not necessarily. I was taught by both my breeders to glue, not tape. So when I say glue, I mean glue! (Probably should have taped though, and I would have avoided building the Berlin Wall between Bacca's ears with glue! :rolleyes2::wink2:)
