I love baby's ears! I wanted a boxer with uncropped ears for two years. I finally got a boxer, but with cropped ears. Nikki was a rescue dog and she was ten months and I would have preferred her to have natural ears but when I looked at that sad face in the kennel, I couldnt say no just becuase of ears. So now I say to her all the time, "My poor baby girl, you had your ears cut off "
