Ears

[biggrigg]

I have a 10 week old and am looking for a good vet in the Raleigh, NC area that crops ears. I am having no luck finding one so far. Can anyone make a recommendation?

Search out local dog clubs, training centers, breeders that breed dogs that are cropped Dobermanns, Danes, Boxers, Pittys, Bouvs etc. Call your state vet. board and see if they can point you in the right direction. I would think the best info would be with breeders. Was your pup from out of state? Or a rescue? Von

Here is a list of breeders in your area. I'd call them and find out who crops for them. So many vets just don't do a good job because it's not trained in vet school.

Thanks for all of the help. After phone calls to different places, lots of research, and getting preached to a little about why we should not crop I found a vet with a very good ear cropping reputation. Again, thanks for the help.
