I see your point colin , but personally i think it also makes them look slightly vicious , which i know they aint , as dobes are a lovely breed with great temprement , in the right owners hands xdk

I personally think it looks terrible and has a tendancy to be used to create a more ferocious looking dog.

Its a purely a cosmetic procedure and it shouldnt be done x

Colin I think you have the wrong idea, cropping cant be done till the puppy is about 8-12 WEEKS old, their ears are just blobs at 2 days old, I think you may be confusing it with docking?
