@flyboy39 Neither.... Do you have the ability to put two and two together? and atleast try to understand the point i was getting at ?

@Eira943 Obviously they are pure bred you can take two dobies with ears cropped and they will have puppies without cropped ears, but the point i'm making is in a dog show these dogs would not be allowed to show because they dont meet AKC "Breed Standards". It's not a true doberman unless its ears are cropped. And you honestly defend cropping ears? why? Dr. Dobermann inteded for these dogs to have their ears cropped. If you say its cruel i'll just laugh, is it cruel my parents circumsized me ?

Getting a dog cropped and docked is like getting braces or being circumsized. So quit crying you pussys. Its done to help the dogs and satisfy the owner. The tails on Dobermans break easily so it gets very costy. Why spend so much on a broken tail every 2 days when you can get it docked. The ears are cropped to look menacing and allow the dog to have better hearing. It looks cool too but its done for a reason. Now stfu all you dumb shits who cry abot this.

@Eira943 "However, we crop them because we like the look. Nothing more, nothing less."
Exactly...we like the look of the cropped ears. To each his own. For instance, we in the U.S. are partial to dentists and oral hygiene, something that continues to escape the know-it-alls in the U.K. : )

@fordka58 Here's some anecdotal evidence for ya doc...I've had Dobies for over 30 years, and only once did I fall prey to the "natural ear logic" and that Dobie, Gunner, suffered his entire life with ear infections except for a two month period when the vet taped his ears over the top of his head, so you're perfect for the UK but you're too full of shit for the U.S.

I dont think that red dog has a sprain, it looks more like a break to me!!!

@fordka58 And also, I would think that you as vet would be more against docking then cropping? Docking is done when the pups are typically less than 5 days old, and they just outright clip the tails off. NO anesthesia. NO painkillers. Studies have revealed that the pups can indeed feel this pain. At least with cropping the dog is down under and they typically get ointments and pain killers. As a dock/crop fancier, my head is not in the clouds. Docking is cruel. The way we do it should change.

@fordka58 I just have to say, to both the people partial to cropping and those not, that the lame excuses have got to stop. I think we all should really just put it out there. Any dog with upright ears is exposed 'seeds' and 'insect bites'. And technically, floppy eared dogs are more prone to infections. Cropping DOES increase the sharpness of a dogs hearing. It is a well known fact. However, we crop them because we like the look. Nothing more, nothing less.

@shutyourmoufff When people say crazy things like you just did, it brings down all of us who defend cropping our dog's ears. These dogs are every bit pure bred. Just because they don't crop doesn't make them any different than a cropped dog.
You really should take the dog with the hurt leg to a vet!!!!
