Of all the breeders I know, I just can't think of one who would not crop ears.
Times may be changing, but I do prefer Dobermans cropped and docked.
If you live in southern Ct, there are lots of shows coming up real soon that are very close to you.
I do think the best was to find a pup is to go to some shows and ask questions. Especially what health testing has been done on parents and the results.
I think ttest results are the most important topics you should be researching.
Here are a list of shows in your area:
Feb 22, 23, and 24 Rockland County KC, Suffern NY (Rockland County). Rockland Community College
Feb 3 Saw Mill River KC, White Plains, NY. Its usually at the Expo Center.
March 15 and 16 Ct River Working Group. West Springfield Ma. Expo Center
You can to to
Home Page, InfoDog -* The Dog Fancier's Complete Resource for information* AKC Dog Show Events, and Dog Products and Services for directions and times dobermans will be shown.
Good luck in your search
