The Border Collie’s ears are generally half-erect, that is, semi-erect ears. If the ears are not erect at all or the entire ears are erect, they are of impure blood. Generally speaking, Border Collie puppies will start to erect their ears at about forty days, and usually one side will erect first, and then the other side. The interval may be from one day to one or two months. Moreover, factors such as dog ear thickness, calcium deficiency, injury, inflammation, etc. will all affect the process of dog ear erection.
If you want your Border Collie to erect its ears faster and better, you should pay attention to calcium supplementation for your Border Collie from an early age. When supplementing calcium for Border Collie, in addition to giving the dog special calcium powder, you should also pay attention to the dog's daily diet. Pay attention to giving Border Collie some foods with high calcium content, such as dried shrimps, tofu and other calcium-rich foods. For higher food, you can also give your dog some carrots, apple puree, banana slices, etc. to supplement vitamins, so that the calcium can work better and be fully absorbed by the dog's body.
The ultimate goal of supplementing calcium to Border Collies is to allow the dog’s body to fully absorb calcium. If it is not absorbed, no matter how good the calcium supplement product is, it will be useless. Therefore, when the weather is nice, it is recommended that owners take their dogs with them. Go outdoors for some exercise and get plenty of sunshine. The ultraviolet rays in the sun help your dog absorb calcium.
