We don't crop the ears. The Cane Corso standard allows dogs with natural ears to participate in the shows. If you decide that you want them cropped we can arrange it with our vet. There will be additional fee for that procedure. According to the standard Cane Corso ears are cropped in a equilateral-triangular shape.

A.) Puppies ears should stand up on there own by six months. But could possibly take up to a year. Some puppies ears need a little more help than others. Laid back, easy going pups at times could be a cause for ears not to go up. Keeping these pups alert and interested and exercising there ears is helpful with mellow, easy going dogs. Sometime a "woolie" puppy has to much hair and the hair is to heavy to let the pups ears stand. Shaving the hair on there ears to give them a little time can help. See similar questions...

The crop year runs from July 1 of the current year to June 30 of the following year. The crop year is designated by the year in which the planted crop is harvested. For example, crops planted in the fall of 2004 are considered to be grown in the 2005 crop year because they are harvested in the spring or early fall of 2005.

We get our puppies from breeders all across the United States. Some of the breeders we have been working with for up to 20 years. For our clients protection we require a one year warranty against problems associated with bad breeding and we pass the warranty along to our clients. Without this warranty we do not buy from the breeder. Much attention is brought to Pet Stores that sell puppies in that they are easily associated with "Puppy Mills". All our breeders must hold a U.S.D.A. See similar questions...

American bred dogs do not have their ears cropped, although they may have dewclaws removed. See similar questions...

No. This is a personal option. Ear cropping is traditional (as a flock guardian, dogs are at an advantage if the prey have no ears to bite at) but not required even for show dogs. Although a cropped ear is preferred, many European countries have banned cropping for humane reasons. The cropped ear does change the expression, however, and some feel it makes the look of the dog.

Fiona is a hybrid of an African fennec fox and a North American red fox. As she matured, her fennec ancestry asserted itself, which was expressed as much larger ears. It has caused her some difficulty, but she has decided to take pride in her ancestry; she changed her clothing from her former white dress to an Americanized version of traditional fennec garb.
