Welcome to Ironmountain Bullmastiffs-
KENNELS. "HOME OF GENTLE GIANTS"

When a Bullmastiff Puppy starts teething (usually around 3 -4 months of age), it can sometimes fold its ears back, resembling the look of the  Bulldogs ears instead of the V-Shape for the Bullmastiff breed.  If you decide not to  tape your puppies ears while  they are folding, the cartilage can often set in that incorrect position, and detracts from the overall appearance of your Bullmastiffs head.

By taping, you are training, and hopefully setting the cartilage into the correct position.

Some Bullmastiffs never need their ears taped at all. Others require taping for just a week or two to correct the carriage, and yet for others, it can be a continual struggle for up to twelve months of age.
