pups ears arent all the way up

My male boston puppy's ears aren't standing erect all the way. The very tips are still bent over and have been for about two months now. He is four and one half months of age. His ears began going up beginning 7-8 weeks of age as well as his littermates. His littermates' ears all fully went up within 3 weeks time. His haven't, so how can I get them to fully go up or is it a lost cause?

 Normal for puppy
by: Josee + Guy

I read on many other BT forums that it is normal if the ears get bent during the dogs teeth developpement. they will most likely get up by themselves afterward.

 No worries

Hi there, I wouldn't worry about his ears. My first Boston had one ear erect for a good three months before the other side was! LOL! All Bostons are different in personality, behaviors, and traits. It is not unusual at all for it to take up to a year for the ears to stay erect.
