For scent hounds who are known for their larger than average 'drop ears,' it begs the question: 'What's up with those dumbo-size auricles?' Some say it provides their masters with an easy way to pick them up.
President Lyndon B. Johnson had two beagles in the White House named Him and Her that raised the ire of the public when he lifted them by their ears while conducting a press conference on the White House lawn. But whether or not the president should have been slapped with charges of dog abuse, it does appear that the scent hound's ears are quite a hardy appendage.
