I was wondering that too. For boxers the ears don't stand unless posted and taped and for some, depending on the ear leather, this could take almost a year, some stand in a few months, but to show him don't they need to be posted once they have been cropped? I read that Danes don't need to be cropped for showing, but if it's already been done by the breeder I thought it needed aftercare? I found that link below in case you didn't know about the posting thing but I don't think they will stand unless you post them, once they have been cropped but I'm sure there are other methods, such as with moleskin etc, that you can find.
