My dog.

[bettagurl]

Dobermans don't have naturally erect ears. They have to have a surgery to crop them and get them to stand up like that. (BTW, if people actually saw what their dog went through in the operating room for that stupid cosmetic difference (which I think looks dumb anyway), most people who actually cared for their dog wouldn't do that to them. People complained about those people selling kittens with earrings, but chopping off half of a dogs ears for no reason is a common practice?)

I know. I think it is disgusting to alter something's body without it having any say in it, for you own wants.
Not only that, the pieces humans cut off are VERY important for dog language, they use their ears and tail the most for talking dog, and I've seen fights start simple from a misunderstanding on body language.

I'll not derail your thread now
