Here is Sweetie at 14 weeks old…just after the stitches were removed. She has a bit longer crop.

Here she is now at 2 years old

This is the picture I took with me to show my vet what I wanted (I love the look of this dog!)

I took that pic in, too, as it's my pup's dam, URO1 UWPO UWPCHX GRCH 'PR' Delmarvas Jhnsns Wish On A Star, CGC (Star).. but the vet screwed up big time, and this is what I got:
Couple days after:

healed:

As you can see, her right ear is bigger than the left.. and NOTHING like her mom's crop.

I got the right ear re-done, and this is her now:

Now I avoid taking head-on shots, because the difference is still noticeable.. and she has some built up scar tissue on the re-cropped ear.

So be prepared for similar complications. I went to a recommended vet and everything.. but he still messed up.

I would still get a crop done in the future, and hope it goes better than Indie's.

edit: I'd call Indie's a crop between a short and a show. I like her cropped.. and as long as I don't look for the mistake, or start rubbing her ears and feeling how they're different, I like how it makes her look.

We have so many ear-crop questions.. can we make a sticky?
