The best time to have your Sheltie’s ears clipped is when they are 3-4 months old (100 days to 145 days). At this time the large blood vessels in the ears have not formed and healing is 1 week. Over 4 months, the traumatic surface of the ears bleeds a lot and the standing ear type look is prone to change. It also takes a long time for the ear to heal. The things you need to prepare after you have your ear done: iodine volts, hydrogen peroxide, Yunnan Baiyao, cotton swabs, and Elizabethan rings. At least three days of anti-inflammatory injection to prevent infection, at least once a day to clean the ear to prevent infection and pus, and 5 or 6 days to remove the stitches, as the stitches tend to pus and grow together with the meat.
