Yeah cropping the ears without a reason to do it is pretty cruel. Good looking dog though.

They did the research that suggested those dogs could develop hearing problems without cropping. Regardless, I saw that pup in misery every time it's poor ears banged on something. Like watching your child in pain and not being able to help.

That info isn't correct. The reason cropping started was for things like hinting so their tails and ears didn't get caught on things. Virtually no dog at this point in time has any health reason for cropping ears or tails.

N.J. getting swole
She likes the fall weather better now that she shedded and grew her winter coat.
Took all these walking her this morning and at the park.
Here she is resting in between playing fetch.
Can't wait till she matures a bit more. She's a rascal.

My moms shih Tzu had its eye pop out, no idea what happened. He was walking around the woods, maybe attacked. I brought him to the vet, talked to mom on the phone about the surgery cost, she kind of got cranky, said something like well might as well put him down for that cost. (she would never, just in a mood)
I came back to the vet told her, "well it looks like we might have to put him down." (he was perfectly healthy, didn't even care his eye was hanging down a couple inches, wagging his tail) The vet she right away dropped the price in half, (from around $500)
Paid $200 for her to cut it off, sow him up. Still alive today at 12 years old, coolest one eyed shitty you'll ever meet. 1400$ sounds like they charged you up the ass. Easy procedure. Next time your dog loses an eye play the "better put him down" card on them to lower your price.

That's weird the option for surgery to remove it was 2k so it was actually cheaper to try and save the eye...

IMO makes no sense, keep a dead eye or cut it and sow it up. Rip off vets you got. No offense, just my opinion
