Honestly people???? It's a damn yes or no question that is 100% a matter of personal preference!!!! Same with docking a dogs tail! But if you are going to provide more than a yes or no, then keep it to the point and with all due respect, leave out a persons up bringing, etc!!!!
Example: no, I don't care for cropped ears because in today's society it's more of a "look at me I'm tough" thing rather than serve a purpose. For true hog dogs, I can see some cropping so the hog doesn't get a hold of the dogs ear. However, the cropped ear allows no protection from the elements, brush or anything along those lines.
If you oppose ear cropping then I hope you oppose it across the board with other breeds, like the Dobie!!
Peace!!!
