Travis and Becky Fletcher: Clarification

Clarification



Some people were wondering why we are taping Chloe's ears. Well, we want them to stand up, like a Yorkie's ears should. Not all do, and they are cute when they flop over, but I really want Chloe to look like a real Yorkie, and she looks even cuter with her ears standing. If that was at all possible. So by taping her ears up for a few days, it helps strengthen the cartiledge in her ears and trains them to stand. After 3 days we take the tape off and see if they stay standing, and tape the drooping ears for 24 hours, until they stand. Could take just the three days, could take 3 weeks. They seem pretty strong already, though! Hopefully it will be closer to the 3 day mark.

And guess what! Christy's water broke tonight!!! So we will be meeting baby girl Heigh very shortly! I'm so excited to be an aunty yet again!
