Do have to tape a pit bull ears after ear cropping if its a short or show crop?

Cropping is illegal in the UK and should be in the US, it's cruel and pointless. Crop and tape your own ears.

Can you crop pit bull ears after six weeks old?
yes the pit bull breed. should have there ears croped at about ten to twelve weeks of age. there are a number of reasons for this but the main one is the pup ears when the are born flop like lab ears. and after six weeks to twelve weeks there ears will start to lift up and stick out to the side. the reason they stick out to the side and not up. is they are to heave. at this time once you crop them and take the wait off and shape them the almost naturally stick up at this time. and that is why pit bull ears stand up allot faster then other breeds like dobbies,grate Danes, boxers, and so on. most of those breeds need to have a brace on for about twenty one days . and the pit bull will only need to be taped to a quarter of that time.. so i hope this helped you on your quest on cropping ears...........

Are cropped ears bad for dogs?
Cropping a dog's ear is cutting a portion of the ear off. Some dogs rely on this outer ear to protect the inner ear from water and bugs and etc, so cropping this type of ear can, indeed, be bad for the dog. Hunting dogs sometimes have their ears cropped to, theoretically, protect them from animals that will grab the ear and/or to protect them from the pain and blood loss of a torn ear from running through the brush. This is about the only valid reason for cropping the ears of a dog. In most other cases, cropping is completely unneeded and even the AKC has recently ruled that lack of cropping is not a disqualification for dogs with traditionally cropped ears. A show dog should be judged by the quality of the dog, not the quality of the doctor who hacks off his ears. If you want a short-eared dog, breed short ears onto them.
