Ordering a Dog from Europe

[MB_722]

Say if I were to get a puppy from Europe and the dog usually would have its tail docked and ears cropped. Still possible to do this?

In Europe they don't dock tails.  At least with Rottie's they dont.

[JediKnight]

Can I crop your fingers off? Actually better yet,, I want to cut them in different positions.

the Doberman looks retarded without cropped ears

I think it depends on the dog.. My buddy growing up had huge thick doby's and they didn't crop the big males.. they looked just fine.. I think they actually looked great.

They dont crop or dock in Europe or Australia. If you do get your Dobie cropped/docked over here, you have to do it when they are puppies, and making their ears stand takes more than a little patience on your part.

Yeah I decided not to crop my pits ears simply because i didnt want to mess with having to keep them taped and healing and worrying about if they would stand or not. She looks fine the way she is.

Good choice Bloat

Yep she convinced me to keep her natural, plus I dont really have the extra cash laying around to be going to the vet every other day.

plus there cuter when there pups and shake their head and their ears shake with them.....

[BigNBloated]

yeah, the whole loss of expression thing really got to me, i love seeing the dogs ears go back in confusion or perk up or whatever else when something excites them. I didnt wanna see my baby with spike ears that dont move.

Look at my boys ears in my signature line...

[BigNBloated]

Yeah they look great, hes a very good looking pit. I saw in other threads he had some major complication, hope he is doing well.
