Some ears simply need time to prick up on their own. However, if you are concerned that they will not stand on their own, there is a trick you can use. (Don't laugh.) Take tampon tubes and feed his ears into them. Then use adhesive tape to wrap the tubes and secure them in place. Remove the tubes every few days to let the ears breathe and check on their progress. Repeat as necessary.

They should go up on their own by the age of 9 months...

If not you'll have a shepherd with permanent soft ears which only means they can't be showed. It is possible to clip but it's cruel and animal abuse...

How long before clipping your German sheperds ears?

Never. There is no reason this should ever be done. It is inhumane and unnecessary. A schnauzers ears should be cropped between 6 and 10 weeks old, any later than that and your odds of them standing goes down. It is not necessary to have the cropped, however many show dogs still do this to keep the original look of the breed. The ears are usually completely heeled by 9 weeks of age if done at six weeks. It is a cosmetic surgery for dogs, just like many humans have things changed.
