Cropped Ears?

[LauraLeigh]

I have never had a breed with cropped ears..... I am pretty sure Lucy's are, is this normal!!??

Ps sorry for the crappy pictures



A couple of her for reference...

Yeah, they look cropped to me. Is she a min pin?

Yes, though her owner was convinced, because someone told her, that she was a Manchester Terrier

How big is she? She looks a little bit more manchester to me than min pin to be honest. And there are a few manchester breeders in Ontario, one that sells dogs in petstores as well.

Totally cropped :]

Yep, cropped. According to the breed standard, Min Pin's ears can be cropped or uncropped. They wouldn't stand like that if they were uncropped.

Way too small, and cropped tail, she is maybe 8 lbs..

We had a Manchester before, ironically he was mislabeled as a Min Pin at the pound... LOL

I know some of the smaller (non standard, I think they come in two sizes) ones are pretty small. Just saying in those pics she looks body structure more like a manchester. Either way she is cute.

Another of her:



Random Manchester:



Random Min Pin:



She is far more, almost a carbon copy of the Min Pin

Best I could do for a body shot quickly

I don't know how Mancheste'rs ears are in the US, I have only seen them looking like this here...

and Miniature Pinschers like this

So you can see why she may have got mixed up, they are almost identical!
