Definitely cropped as well as docked. It's so sad that docking and cropping has been banned in Germany. For the rest of Europe,the ban will start beginning 1st Jan 2006. The dobes with tails n uncropped ears look like hounds.. Though today it's done for cosmetic purposes(for show) but for those in the working line,specifically protection work,it's still useful as threats will hv a hard time to grab onto the ears(for some..the military crop) or tails(a lil stub..) Also, they hv less of a chance of breaking their tails(same reason why spaniels and other breeds hv docked tails) as they are very active dogs. I'm pro cropping and docking as long as it is done humanely(with GA and everything's sterilised) ,-._,-. \/)"(\/ (_o_)
