This is something that got me thinking. Why is there such variations on the size of ears on Nethies? I always thought Nethies had the teeny ears, like Arran does. But after being on this forum, I'm seeing lots of other Nethies, which much larger ears than him.

Is there a sort of standard for Nethie ears, are the larger ones bunnies that have had cross-breeding with larger breeds in their history, or is like sort of like with spaniels, show type spaniels have longer ears, while working ones have shorter ears? Not that Nethies 'work' :lol: but I mean with different breeding lines having different ears.
