ear cropping

Hi , I’m a new Doberman momma. My baby girl Leilani will be 11 weeks on Friday, with that being said she isn’t fully vaccinated yet. I was wondering if my puppy needs to have all her vaccines before she gets her ears cropped (to prevent possible infections). I’ve been getting mixed responses...

Hi guys I’m looking at taking in a Doberman (7 months old) and as I was chatting to the current owner and asking about the puppies ears, she said the reason they were standing was because NONE of the sutures had been removed. They have been there for about 4 months. If I end up taking in the...

Hi everyone, I just got my Kobe’s ears cropped today. I’d asked the dr for a long crop and didn’t want to take off too much ear. Maybe not a show length crop, but certainly not short. I provided a pic for reference as well. My question is simply what length would this crop be considered? And is...

Hi folks, my puppy had stitches removed the other day and now has ears glued to sponge. The vet said it would be best to continue letting the ears heal now without stitches prior to posting. Yesterday, she managed to scratch her ears a lot and, as you can see in one of the photos, removed the...

Hello, I have my first Doberman, Bruce. He is 10mo and his left ear does not stand. After reading through a lot of these forums, I found that my vets method of posting was not working. He would let them be down for a week before he would post them again. I stopped going to him after 4 months...

I am a new doberman owner and am wondering if I should continue with posting? The vet said he thought posting was no longer needed but I feel they're still floppy when not at attention and am not sure if that's how they're supposed to look when not at attention..

I’m picking up my Doberman puppy soon and I’ve been reading up on posting methods and tips. I’ve heard from one breeder that you should “test” the ear’s strength (leave them unposted for as long as they stand on their own) in between posting in order to see how the ears are progressing and...

Hello all! Our lovely 11 week old Female , Seilah was cropped a couple weeks ago, had her stitches removed Monday and was posted at the vet, with likely too much tape. Removed the posts/tape Thursday Night, inner ears all good, a little funky but nothing out of the ordinary, however the leather...

Back story: This is my first Doberman and first ear cropping situation. My Doberman had her ears cropped at 13 weeks. She removed the posting at night after a few days of having it and the vet decided to wait until after the stitches were removed to post again, telling me her ears would continue...

So our Doberman pup got his ears done 4 days ago. Last night a big scab fell off and it looks like the stitch is gone. It’s on the bottom. It did scab overnight. I contact my vet who is almost two hours away and sent him a picture. He said it looks okay just put some neoaporin on the area. I...

Hello! I am new here so please excuse any thread errors.. I have an 11 week old puppy who just had his ears cropped yesterday. My vet sent him home with a bandage over his head and told me to remove it the next day (today). They also gave me an e-collar and pain medicine which I gave him this...

So I had my little luna's ears cropping and posted at the same place twice but then I moved and I managed to find another vet that specializes in ear cropping to do the posting but now there touching tips with or without the posting on when we're out on a walk, there completely fine when she's...

Hi Everyone, i am a first time Dobbie mommy and we just cropped Rokero's (Rocker's) ears exactly 1 week ago. He finished his anti biotics, we clean his ears, he hasn't scratched, and they seem to be healing nicely. i have noticed that he has been barking a substantial amount since we cropped...
