Can anyone recommend a vet that does a nice show crop on Doberman ears within 100 miles of Lansing, MI?

Answers:
If you aren't going to show the dog - you may want to reconsider the show crop (although I think they are pretty) They take a lot of time and work to make stand properly. I have 3 dobes - 3 diff sets of ears 1 with a utility or military cut, 1 with a long show crop and 1 little rescue with adorable natural yet button ears! See pictures below if you like!

If you do plan on it - call reputable local breeders to see their dog's ears and find out who did them. Choose very carefully.

cropping sucks and its cruel!

Why crop your Doberman's ears? I've seen many uncropped Doberman's that I thought were gorgeous. What you put them through to get the ears to stand up is hardly justified, unless you're showing them where having cropped ears is the breed standard.

Call some of the Dobe show breeders in Michigan and ask them
