If we do get her ears cropped it will be better then having them hang because danes get ear infections really badly in their flopped ears and hardly ever do in their cropped ears. We are going to talk to the vet about it on monday. I think my daneis a lil too old to get it done anyways the prefered age is up to 10 weeks and she is 14..

Here's a great site I found which I agree to what it has to say about cropping ears.

Not only is it painful but it's normally just for looks.
