Ear cropping is a surgical procedure.

I personally love natural ears, and would opt for natural ears in the future. So if you aren't comfortable with the surgery, don't do it :-) We have lots of natural dobes here on our forum, and they all look awesome. | |

I wouldn't do Petey's ears if I had a choice, they were already done when I bought him. It has been a very long few months posting them, and he has an awful looking crop....they will never look really good. He would have looked so much better with them natural.
