lop-eared positive

lop-eared = lop + ear (transparent) = lop + ear + ed

Meaning is directly composed from 'lop' (drooping) + 'ear' + '-ed' to mean 'having drooping ears', a straightforward descriptive formation.

Lop-eared comes from an old English word lop that meant 'to hang down', so a lop-eared animal is one whose ears hang or droop down.
