Why do you want to cut your dogs ears off just to make her look a certain way? As far as the ear infections thing, I don't think that's entirely true...if you just CLEAN your dogs ears there isn't a problem. The dog with the worst amount of ear infections are Cocker Spaniels...and you don't see people cutting their ears off! There's a doberman with *cropped* ears that comes in for a bath every 2 weeks...his ears are ALWAYS filthy!
