no one has experience with this brace? Id really like some input since this is only my 2nd dog ive had to get his ears done, and im 99% sure his left ear will need some bracing, so any advice would be helpful
At what point do you remove the stitches post surgery? I have a rescued puppy that had already had the procedure but still has some stitches.
If you don't know how long it's been since the ears were cropped, take the dog to a vet and ask them to take a look to make sure the edges are healed well enough to pull the sutures, but DO NOT let anyone wrap, tape, or otherwise mess with the ears once the sutures are out until the edges are completely healed and the scabs fall off on their own.
Puppy ears go through all kinds of weird phases. She may always have dropped ears, or they may rose eventually. You could always tape them into a rose now.
You're in GA? That's where Sako had his cropped:

If you want I can get you the name of the clinic that did them (he was cropped there before I got him).
I know this is old and yes I'm post creeping but where in Ga did you get your dogs ears cropped , and how much was it just compiling a lot of different places and looking into all of them to make sure I get a good vet

The vet that cropped Sako has retired. There's another one down there that's good though, I can't remember the name off the top of my head. I can get it if you want.
I think Sako's crop was $250? Something like that.
What is the point of cropping ears. Is it just for looks. Hubby wants to but I don't think it's beneficial or needed.

This is Koda should we tape his ears or do you think they still have a chance to stand up on their own? They are pretty much all the way healed. Any info would be appreciated thank you!
