RE: Welcoming Nyx to the family

in Hive Pets4 years ago

When I was a kid, all dobermans had pointy (cropped) ears so everyone was used to it in my country. These days, however, most of them are natural with floppy ears and I am glad that this trend has changed. Not a fan of cutting anything on dogs or any other animal, especially when it´s only to make the dog look more cool or intimidating...

But I know it was not you who did it to Nyx and I also know she will be the happiest dog in the world with you guys ;) Buy her some nice treat with this TipU vote and say hi from her big Czech fan :)

I can only agree with you! I am also not a fan of it. In Germany, this is thank God prohibited

I just checked and it´s actually prohibited in my country (Czech Republic) too. Fortunately ;) If people have the desire to modify their own bodies, it´s their choice but let´s leave animals alone. I don´t think they would be so excited about the plastic surgery business :)

Thank you so much! We are feeding her a ton of treats already so a bit more wouldn't hurt!
The ear cropping is a practice of the place we got her from. I think most European countries have a law against it. I'm not a massive fan of modifying dogs either but Nat's dad has been buying and breeding dobermans from this place for many years now and that's how they've done it so couldn't really argue with the person that got the dog for us. 😀 We can just take the best care of her we can.
