What IS That Smell? Have you ever been cuddling your dog, enjoying a sweet moment and smelled something…funky? You looked around, checked your shoes, your dog's feet and then you realize it is their EARS! Dirty dogs ears can have a yeasty, almost sickly sweet smell or like the nastiest old sneakers ever. Dirty ears can also warrant a trip to the vet, in the case of infections or severe buildups, which is why it's important to use our natural dog ear cleaner.
We wanted a natural ear cleaner for dogs that cleaned our dogs ears and left smelling and looking FRESH! And thus our Blissfully Fresh™ Ear Cleaner was developed to naturally clean your dog's ears. Boom. Done.

As you may well imagine, there are as many shapes of dog ears as there are dogs. In researching this bit, I was astounded by three things.
#1 - Have some of these people who named the shape of the ears ever seen a dog's ear?
#2 - There are only so many names to call dogs ears that hang down
#3 - The dogs don't care at all what shape we call their ears
Bat Ears - large, erect ears that sit high on the head - French Bulldog, Corgi
Button Ears- is in-between a Drop and Semi-Erect ear. The button comes from Pugs, Parson Russell Terriers
Drop Ears - Good ears that hang down. Labs, Goldens, Dachshund
Erect Ears - Stand straight up and point forward. Sticky-Uppy ears is the professional terminology - German Shepherd, Siberian Husky, Alaskan Malamute
Folded Ears are Drop Ears taken to the extreme - Basset, Bloodhound scent dogs
Pricked or Semi-Erect- An ear that tips at the end and does not stand up straight like the prick or erect ear. Border Collie, Shetland Sheepdog
Rose Ears- are supposed to be an erect ear that forms the shape of the rose when it is folded. It folds backwards, so is not a button ear. Greyhound, Whippet, Bulldog Note: Sorry, I am not getting a ROSE vibe at all
Only One Breed
Butterfly - the Papillon
Candle Flame - English Toy Terrier
Filbert - Bedlington Terrier
As most of us do, I Googled around using "dog ear shape" and shape of dog ears names" and other equallly pithy phrases.
Yes, I even went old school and dug out my old dog encyclopedias and had a trip down memory lane.
I came to the following conclusions...
SEVERAL websites had the same typo in part of a description...hmmm. Several had names of dog ear shapes I had never heard of and I've been showing dogs and immersed in dogs for 35 years!
The books, which were several editions of AKC The Complete Dog Book and a few Dog Encyclopedias had no common phrases, except quotes from the breed standards. Plus, you get a feel for each authors style.
I'm not why this bothered me so, but it did. There is research and there is Copy and Pasting. Rant Over!!!
OK, the 5th grade level my sense of humor is stuck in snickered at all the phallic terms used to describe dog ears. Semi-Erect, Erect, Semi-Prick, Pricked...why those terms? Snickering Over!
