ABSTRACT:
An ear brace for dogs, such as Doberman-Pinschers, whose ears require support during their early weeks and months to train the dog to hold its ears erect. The ear brace comprises a light wire frame having a crossarm slightly larger than the width of the dog's head, and two toed-in side arm members which converge inwardly as they extend downwardly from opposite sides of the crossarm. At the end of each side-arm member remote from the crossarm a substantially 90 degree bend is formed, toed inwardly and extending for about one-half inch and a reversely directed bend is then formed to provide a return portion in each side-arm member. The return portion of each side-arm member extends upwardly angled toward the respective ends of the crossarm from which the side-arm members depend, on a line which if extended would progressively approach the junction of each respective side-arm member and the respective ends of the crossarm from which they depend. The ear brace is used by spreading apart the side-arm members and sliding down on each side of the dog's head over the ears, then releasing the side-arm members to clamp each ear against the side of the dog's head.
