You need to ask a vet. Many people now don't think it should be done.

What kind of ear cropp is better for a pitbull?

This is really a matter of personal opinion as this is really only a cosmetic operation. There are generally four accepted styles of ear crop for Pit Bulls: the Battle Crop, Short Crop, Show Crop and Long Crop. The Battle Crop involves removing the entire of the outer ear and, as its name suggests, is usually seen on Dogs destined for the pit. The Short Crop is one of the most common crops seen on Pit Bulls and involves leaving only a small amount of the outer ear intact. The Show Crop is for owners who want to show their Dogs and involves the ears being shortened slightly and cut into the desired pointed shape so that the Dog looks smart and alert for the show ring. The Long Crop is quite rarely seen on Pit Bulls and takes the longest to heal, it involves leaving the ear as long as possible and only trimming what is needed to give a nice pointed shape. So, it is up to you.

Why are puppies ears not open when they are born?

A puppies ear canals are sealed. It takes them about ten days after being born for their ears to finish development. After this, the canals will open on their own. The puppies hearing will be very acute as soon as this happens. Another reason is that dogs have very keen hearing, when they are little, the sounds would be deafening if they could hear them.

Can you crop newborn puppy ears?

You cannot crop a newborn puppy's ears until they are about 10 days old, or until the ears "open." It will usually take up to three corrections to make the ears match, because they seem to grow at different rates. I do the first cropping at ten days, then do the corrections at one week intervals, using a little lidocaine to minimize pain. I also believe in pain meds and antibiotics after cropping. It is a very painful procedure. Some countries have banned ear cropping, which I think is wonderful. I try to talk people out of cropping when possible but it seems more humane at the younger ages, rather than waiting until the puppy is 9 weeks old or older. Dr. C. Hobbs
