Puppy Ear Cropping Information.

Ear Cropping should be done between 6 - 12 weeks of age. 

Keep in mind, ear cropping is a cosmetic surgery, it is the owners

personal choice to crop or not to crop. Owners who choose cropping,

prefer the breed standard look. 

Cropping is not mandatory in any breed, even for show dogs. 

Just like any cosmetic surgery the outcome of this procedure relies 

strongly upon on follow up care.

Owners who take on the commitment should understand there is 

around 21 days minimum healing time, and 2 post surgery visits. 

Post surgery precautions need to be made for another month after that 

to keep things healing perfect.

To be sure of your commitment and outcome, Dr. Kehler requires

owners to schedule a consultation appointment together with your

puppy, to decide upon steps towards the procedure.

Contact Kihei Veterinary Clinic and schedule your appointment

early to be sure ear cropping is right for you, and your puppy.  

Puppies grow up to be dogs fast so understand that after 10 -12 weeks

it will be too late for the cropping procedure.

Dr Kehler provides show quality ear cropping and follow up 

procedures to heighten the breeds standard appearance. 

Your commitment to your pets care should be as strong now 

as it will be in the future. The extra care you put into your pet

for this procedure will bond you both even closer.
