I love dogs with floppy ears, but if I remember correctly, the shape of ears redirects sonic waves into the ear canal and while I can imagine that if I look at a wolf or a German Shepherd, I’m confused how that works for dogs with floppy ears – or *do* they hear worse than dogs with more “classic” ear shapes?
In: Biology
They do hear worse yes, but it’s not a bad thing for their health at all, it’s just blocking some sound and blocks the way to the ear canal. If you put your hand over your ears, I bet you can tell a difference. But either way they are fine. Be a little extra loud. Have fun.
