Oh *blood boiling* I Hate people that do stuff like that to sweet pups! And to be deaf too... poor baby! Do you think him being deaf had something to do with the botched ear job??
(I don't know anything about cropping... but who ever did the ears didn't care about the dog's health or well being, just how the dog looked)

Captain Cuddles.... I just want to SMOOCH you right on the nose!
He looks so sweet hugging that little stuffy.
