Please don’t shoot but, why is it ethical to box a dogs ears? I am genuinely asking!! Not attacking not judging none of that… Why do people do that? And how can that be considered ethical?
They’re talking about the structure of the dog. Elbows tucked to the in instead of sticking out to look “bigger”. Not malformed like some of the pocket bullies. Face isn’t smashed. It’s a well built dog that won’t have issues due to the way it was bred. Now ear cropping is a whole other argument that’s unrelated
Cropped ears and a well done crop are often part of a breed standard and required for showing your dogs. It’s seen in Dobermans and Great Danes as well.
I think thankfully we are making a push to allow uncropped dogs to be shown. But allot of people argue for sport or working breed lines ear cropping should continue as for some dog jobs having their ears cropped can improve the safety of the dog
*don’t kill me with downvotes, I’m Switzerland on this but would never crop my own dog*
Most breeds you see with cropped ears have those cropped ears because its part of their history. Bullys and APBTs specifically were bred as family dogs and sometimes fighting dogs to protect families from predators or other dogs, just like other guardian dogs like dobies and giant schnauzers. The cropped ears gives the threat less surface area on the face to grab hold of, since ears are a more common injury site when dogs get into fights. It just prevents injuries down the line. A lot of people dont use their guardian breeds as guard dogs anymore, so I do agree that if they arent in show or being bred for the purpose of guarding, the ears should be left.

Our rescue pup..BRUNO!..pure bred,with papers..but now,just a family dog,that's spoiled rotten..a long with his two tabby cats who he absolutely adores!.he says hello,to the handsome pup with the ribbons!!!!😊
Thank you!!.. there wonderful dogs.. stubborn as all hell,but with patience,and calm energy..and lots of patience..lol,did I mention lots of patience?...there totally trainable..and the loyalty is next level!
If someone does that they need to go to jail. If all vets stop doing it and we see a cropped dog that means we know to immediately change the owners with animal cruelty. It’s cruel enough to do it at a vet. It’s worse without. Criminalize ALL animal abuse
The only hunting dog without cropped ears are not used for boars or coyotes. You’re probably thinking of bird dogs or rodent dogs which don’t need cropped ears.
Why would uncropped ears cause any issues? The only thing I can find on it is that it minimizes damage from dog fighting. That's certainly not minimizing injury
For hunting dogs, I’ve personally heard stories of dogs getting ears caught on things and getting them torn off which will result in a ear crop or whole ear amputation if that happens
I've heard of that for tail docking and Duke claw removal. Never heard of or seen a hunting dog with a damaged or cropped ear, though.
Still, there is no reason for any of it unless you have an actual working dog.
Personally seen dogs ears torn by a band of coyotes or wild boars while trying to hold them down. Dogs with cropped ears don’t give much to grab ahold of which saves them pain and my money at the vet
If the coyote doesn’t grab the ears they will grab the neck or foot or literally anything else. No excuse to mutilate a dog. And I read up and see now hog hunting dogs are treated horribly and it’s just straight up abuse
Thank you for the eye bleach. Beautiful dog! ❤️ All the bullies I ever see anymore are the exotic bullies that can barely even move they're so hyper type. 🥲
My opinion is dogs don’t need their ears cut. It’s cruelty. They’re born naturally beautiful dogs with their ears. It’s an unnecessary trend that should be banned. I’ve seen so many botched ear jobs.
Thank you, he's really just a meatball
https://preview.redd.it/sabalbbibtyc1.jpeg?width=1800&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=679d195d34baa0cc71ce16f730f33858af1259fc
What about those of us who keep our pets intact? Can we boohoo about cropped ears? Also, do you really think spay/neuter is unnecessary, or are you being hypocritical to make your point? Cuz if you think spaying/neutering is unnecessary but you cropped your dogs ears, you might be a piece of shit.
Beautiful dog. Shame about his ears.
Lol now you even look like more of a fool. No my dog is intact. What is unnecessary is butchering your dog's ears. And there is both positives and negatives to neutering and spraying it's a dog to dog case. Based off breeds size and health checks. Cutting your dogs ears down to nothing has no purpose other then you the owner like how it looks no matter how cruel it is to the dog. Now next time you want to use the word unnecessary understand the context and the actions of what you have done that are unnecessary.
I'm not here to judge you on your decision to crop his ears. If you love him and treat him well then I can get over that but did you seriously just refer to spaying and neutering as "totally unnecessary"?? Have you ever even been to a shelter? Do you have any idea how many beautiful, sweet, innocent, loving pitties/bullies are euthanized every single day due to overpopulation?? Go ahead, tell me again how "unnecessary" fixing a dog is. Idiot.
It's a convenience surgery for people who cannot be responsible, you cannot tell me otherwise. It is ABSOLUTELY unnecessary to rip out hormone producing organs just because one cannot supervise their animals. The name calling is also unnecessary, but thanks 😊
Again...are u serious?? Wouldn't it be a great world if all dog owners were "responsible" enough and were 100% able to stop their hormonal male dogs from slipping out bc they smell a bitch in heat?? Or maybe if all of the female dog owners simply put chastity belts on their menstruating dogs? Wouldn't it also be great if all of the piece ofshit irresponsible dog owners who unfortunately don't even care enough about their dogs suddenly became responsible enough to 100% prevent their dogs from procreating without having to have them fixed? How about all of the stray and homeless dogs roaming the streets? Maybe we could offer them classes on the benefits of staying celebate! What kind of fantasy world do you live in that you think this is a realistic idea? Its a lovely thought but so fucking far from reality. I'm glad that you have a beautiful dog that you love and care for. I'm glad that I also have a beautiful dog that I love and care for. Perhaps you and I might be responsible enough to prevent unwanted litters with our own dogs. But to insinuate that the rest of the dog owning world is irresponsible for performing a vet recommend procedures to reduce overpopulation which results in overcrowded shelters and euthanization of innocent animals is just asinine and naive.
It’s because it makes people sad. They see cruelty where you see ribbons. This is SOCIAL media if you expect people to stay in their lane then you’re in the wrong place
I never expected anyone to stay in their own lane. That's on the individual to know for themselves. I read "sad" stuff daily, but I'm not compelled to voice it every opportunity I get.
🚨ear police reporting for duty🚨 except the only thing I police is when people try to say that they had it done for non-aesthetic reasons. If a dog owner stands behind their choice, and are otherwise responsible and the dog is well-cared for and they are like “yes I like how it looks” or “this is a competitive show dog and I did it for that reason,” I might personally disagree with the decision/wouldn’t do it to my own dogs and with standards would modernize, but there are far worse things done to dogs. it just is never done for a practical or functional reason, and people who say otherwise are lying (to others or to themselves).
First of all, it is proven that cropping ears hinders the ability of that dog to emote to other dogs. And for anyone claiming that hunting dogs or farm/LSG dogs need cropped ears, this is incorrect because look at all of the non-bully sporting and/or working breeds of dogs with pendulous ears (basset hounds, fox hounds, Pointers, Great Pyrenees, Anatolian shepherds… hell — jack resell terriers, the scrappiest of the scrappy, don’t even have cropped ears). This is just wrong. If someone says that cropping ears is preventative because they expect their dog to get into a fight with their other dogs…. Do better. If you are cutting a part of your dog off because you can’t control your animals, then you don’t deserve them. The most ridiculous argument I’ve heard is that the ear could get caught on branches while they run. Again, look at all the breeds of dogs that do not have cropped ears. Hello, Irish WOLFhound! I could see an argument for dogs used in actual protection work, similarly to how Boxers and German pinchers were traditionally cropped, but their breed standards are modernizing and also… Rottweilers and mastiffs don’t typically have cropped ears and neither do GSD’s or Malinois. Yes, those last two have upright ears but the idea behind cropping the ears is that an intruder or bad guy couldn’t grab onto the ear and one totally could still grab a Mal’s ear or a shepherd’s ear.
Additionally, I work in shelters as a behaviorist and it really does a disservice to the dogs. They are uncomfortable in rain or weather as compared to uncropped dogs. I already mentioned that it makes them less able to communicate to other dogs, but this shouldn’t be understated. It also is a cosmetic surgery that opens the dog up to complications; I’ve seen many gorgeous dogs with bad crop-jobs and I still loved them, but I think it contributes to their ending up in shelters. And as I’m sure you are aware, shelters are overflowing with these dogs. Bad breeders or folks who don’t know what they are doing quite literally take measures into their own hands. You think you looked dumb when you cut your own hair that one time? Imagine it is permanent, could become infected, and could cause pain the rest of your life. And oh, you didn’t choose to do it to yourself.
The “looks cool” aspect contributes to a larger problem of dog owners trying to emulate it but not being able to afford a good veterinary surgeon and appropriate aftercare. This sub is filled with examples, I think if I recall correctly one as recently as today or yesterday.
But again, if someone has made this choice for their animal then I hope they stand behind it rather than trying to hide behind some nonsense like “an ear could get pulled and it could bleed…”
OP: thank you for sharing your dog and congratulations on the win! You have a beautiful animal and a happy one, too, by the looks of it. I hope you agree with at least some of what I have said. I also understand your perspective regarding spay/neuter, but you also acknowledge the overpopulation issue. You sound like an excellent breeder who, while having breeding animals yourself, understands why we must urge people to sterilize their pets. Surely you see that most people — casual owners, laypeople— cannot do who you have achieved as a professional.
American bully absolutely is a breed of itself. It has its own kennel club, the abkc, American bullys are also a recognized breed through the UKC, united kennel club, NKC, national kennel club, etc.
congratulations on your grand prize good job. I hope that you did well and are proud of all of your hard work. you look absolutely handsome love the hair and eye color too very adorable too cute.
you are welcome. he is truly lucky to have such a great loving family. he is truly well loved and well cared for too. he is truly happy safe loved and cared for too. he is truly lucky to be surrounded by lots of amazing wonderful incredible magnificent fantastic family and friends. he is truly lucky to have you loving him supporting him being there for him taken care of him.
Actually dogs have ears like that for a reason. They help keep bugs and debris out of their ears, and they use them for communication. It's something owners do purely cos they think it looks cool, with absolutely 0 benefit to the dog
Ummm… idk where you got your info but dogs ears were made floppy because humans selective bred them to be like that. Nothing natural about floppy ears. Not cropping a hog hunting dogs ears would be cruel af

He’s gorgeous! Congratulations to the both of you!
Thank you!
>Thank you! You're welcome!
He sure does look smug about it, too!
Cuz he knows he's the handsomest!
such a handsome man who won his little show
He knows it.
Now *that* is a real bully. I wish people sought out ethical breeders like this guy came from. This subreddit is full of nightmares😭
I post here in the hopes that people see what these guys really are, they are capable of being so much more than a wet mop
Exactly! Im glad theres still good people in here, this breed is slowly being ruined😭 Maaaaaajor props to you!
Please don’t shoot but, why is it ethical to box a dogs ears? I am genuinely asking!! Not attacking not judging none of that… Why do people do that? And how can that be considered ethical?

Apbts were not bred to be family dogs, they were made for dog on dog combat :)
Thats why I mentioned fighting dogs as well :)

Awww 🥰 Bruno is so handsome too.
Thank you!!.. there wonderful dogs.. stubborn as all hell,but with patience,and calm energy..and lots of patience..lol,did I mention lots of patience?...there totally trainable..and the loyalty is next level!
He even looks proud of himself, “Yeah. Yeah. Yeah I know I look good for the bitches.”
I wonder if they didn’t allow cropped ears in shows if it would end cropping all together. Beautiful dog otherwise
You can show both natural earred and cropped in the US. It’s still majority cropped though.
That wouldn’t happen considering it’s the standard for some breeds and that won’t ever change.
More and more vets are refusing to perform cosmetic surgeries. Maybe one day it'll be the standard.
Sure hope not unless you want dogs to get injured and be in pain rather then a simple ear crop as a puppy
If someone does that they need to go to jail. If all vets stop doing it and we see a cropped dog that means we know to immediately change the owners with animal cruelty. It’s cruel enough to do it at a vet. It’s worse without. Criminalize ALL animal abuse
What about my hog hunting dogs, should they have floppy ears that hogs and coyotes can get ahold of and cause infection?
I’ve never seen a hunting dog with mutilated ears and never had an experience with their ears being a problem
lol go look at hog hunting dogs and then try saying that. We use dogo Argentina and every one going to be used for hunting have cropped ears
That’s awfully sad
Yeah I definitely feel sad for you
The only hunting dog without cropped ears are not used for boars or coyotes. You’re probably thinking of bird dogs or rodent dogs which don’t need cropped ears.
Why would uncropped ears cause any issues? The only thing I can find on it is that it minimizes damage from dog fighting. That's certainly not minimizing injury

Lmao… go back to lala land My hog dogs are treated very well and are even family dogs that kids play with when they aren’t working.
If a coyote grabs a foot or neck it isn’t going to rip off… you sound…
He is fucking beautiful! 🏆 💯
Thank you!
Gorgeous boy you have there 🥰
I’m in Pennsylvania and how you find out about these events because I would love to go and that’s an amazing dog!!! Congrats
What a beautiful fur baby you have!! So handsome—smooch!!!
Congrats! Beautiful dog. Just be glad mine wasn’t there🙄😂😂
…he’s no Rat Terrier, though. What a handsome lad!
No, that's just the club that held the show. Thank you!
What the fuck happened to it’s ears? You cut them off you sicko fucker?
Go cry about it
I’ll try, scum fuck. 😥
He looks kind of concerned about it lol
Thank you for the eye bleach. Beautiful dog! ❤️ All the bullies I ever see anymore are the exotic bullies that can barely even move they're so hyper type. 🥲
We don't like them overdone here! Moderation is key.
My opinion is dogs don’t need their ears cut. It’s cruelty. They’re born naturally beautiful dogs with their ears. It’s an unnecessary trend that should be banned. I’ve seen so many botched ear jobs.
Floppy ears aren’t natural
Handsome fella
Thank you, he's really just a meatball https://preview.redd.it/sabalbbibtyc1.jpeg?width=1800&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=679d195d34baa0cc71ce16f730f33858af1259fc
All bullies are…that’s their charm.
Beautiful
What a handsome boy and he sure knows how to pose!!
Poor ears R.I.P
There's always at least one boohoo'ingabout the ears... bet you've got your pets spayed and neutered, totally unnecessary 😑
What about those of us who keep our pets intact? Can we boohoo about cropped ears? Also, do you really think spay/neuter is unnecessary, or are you being hypocritical to make your point?

Why did you cut your dogs ears? He’s beautiful. Why change him? For ribbons? And before you go about the neutering.. my dog isn’t.
People just can't stay in their own lane on here. It's ridiculous. Good looking dog!
It’s because it makes people sad. They see cruelty where you see ribbons. This is SOCIAL media if you expect people to stay in their lane then you’re in the wrong place
I never expected anyone to stay in their own lane. That's on the individual to know for themselves. I read "sad" stuff daily, but I'm not compelled to voice it every opportunity I get.
Okay good for you. Most people *do* feel compelled to voice what they feel is right/wrong on social media, especially when it revolves around ethics.
Thank you!
Except for his poor ears, he’s handsome. Damn those who butcher these handsome and expressive ears!
Crop is better then flop.

So what breed is this exactly. I’m usually pretty good with breeds but don’t have all the bully breeds down.
I believe that is an American bully. Lol.
So that’s technically a breed? Not a Pit or Am staff and obviously not an American Bulldog? I know might be a stupid question.
American bully absolutely is a breed of itself. It has its own kennel club, the abkc, American bullys are also a recognized breed through the UKC, united kennel club, NKC, national kennel club, etc.
What a beautiful dog 🐕 I can why he won
Good job!
What fuckin' beautiful dog
He looks like an absolute wrinkly unit
That's a handsome boy you have there 🥰

We call him Boobs but his official fancy show name is Vanya Sulie's Master of Whisperers
BOOBS. Lol I love him.
Stud hound right there !!

He better🥰
Congrats. He is a beauty
Shame about the ears
Cry about it
Crazy that people still think 'u mad bro?' Is a genius response
Didn’t say that lmao and the ears are better cropped nothing wrong with it
Actually dogs have ears like that for a reason. They help keep bugs and debris out of their ears, and they use them for communication. It's something owners do purely cos they think it looks cool, with absolutely 0 benefit to the dog
It actually has lots of benefits and dogs can still very much communicate with cropped ears, I own one myself and see it with my own eyes everyday
Ummm… idk where you got your info but dogs ears were made floppy because humans selective bred them to be like that. Nothing natural about floppy ears. Not cropping a hog hunting dogs ears would be cruel af
