I'm just curious, is there any health benefits to cropping a dog's ears or is it all for looks?
It depends.. there are several schools of thought on this. For the most part, I believe it's cosmetic. However, I'd rather not get into a cropping debate on this thread.
Rest assured that these puppies were cropped by one of the most experienced and talented cropping veterinarians in the country. She knows what she's doing, and does a spectacular job at not only making the ears look wonderful, but to minimize any discomfort and decrease the healing time needed.
