An Akita’s ears usually start standing up at about one month and are fully erect by 6 to 8 months. During this time, supplement calcium, because deficiency affects ear standing; give bone broth or calcium tablets and sunlight for absorption.
Also, care for the ears daily to prevent bacterial infection and ear mites.
