A: Quick Answer. A German Shepherd's ears will stand up at different times depending on the dog; some puppy's ears beginning to stand up at 7 to 9 weeks old, while other wait until 5 to 6 months of age. At the end of the eighth month of a puppy's life, the puppy's ears will become permanently placed as the ear cartilage hardens, so owners who are not happy with floppy ears will need to speak with their veterinarian to correct them.
In some dogs, the process will take longer. Every puppy, even puppies from the same litter, will develop differently. Some German Shepherds may take up to seven months. If his ears do not stand up by the time he is 8 months old, they are probably never going to stand up because this is the time when most GSD's ears take permanent form.
