i there a bigger indicator of ghetto trash than owning a dog with cropped ears?
i wouldn't adopt one even if it were otherwise the greatest dog on earth because of this

It depends. A few of the dogs I've gotten from shelters were cropped, but the dogs were wonderful dogs.
It provides a good opportunity to tell curious people about how important a dog's ears are for communication and why they should be left intact.

i hate talking to people so that's not a motivator

I'm conflicted, because usually I think cropped ears looks like ass. But there are some breeds that are so iconic and known for looking a certain way with cropped ears that it's weird seeing them without, like Dobermans and Great Danes.
One of my favorite breeds of all time, and my for sure second dog will be a Beauceron. But they just looks so majestic with their ears cropped, they look dopey with natural ears. I'm really conflicted about whether I should have the ears cropped when I finally get mine.
Pic related is with cropped ears

And here's one with natural ears.

That dog has a hell of a mustache.

If you're conflicted about whether or not you should surgically alter a dog's anatomy for aesthetic reasons, you probably shouldn't get a dog.
You're also wrong. Beaucerons look cute and majestic with both cropped and uncropped ears. Doesn't matter.

I thought dogs could hear better that way.
Now that I think of it, it's pretty fucking dumb to just cut a dog's ears or tail...
>>2274387
Yes, it is dumb, especially because dogs use their ears and tails to communicate
Why would you crop a doggers ears?
>>2274315
Ah okay so this is just a run of the mill autism thread then
I can almost understand tail cropping from a practical perspective, but ear cropping is just dumb.

he looks like a pretty good boy desu
>>2274362
That's not that bad of a crop, and he has a tail. He can still move his ears about and down and such. Not all dog have big floppy ears. As long as they give that poor puppy the proper pain meds when they do it, then I say go for it.

The dog doesn't care how "majestic" it looks, you stupid fucking beaner. And the second picture looks way better anyway.
Why is it always you people with your retarded broken ass English like you're Skwisgaar from Metalocalypse? I know they don't have animal rights in the third world but then they shouldn't have Internet either.

That's funny coming from someone who lives in a country without human rights
>>2274577
Did you explain to the person what happened to your dog?
>>2274579
It's so impressive you can magically guess what country I'm from by using your magical Aztec telepathy, Pablo. Go back to beating your pitbulls after leaving them in your backyard all night.
