After a long talk with everyone on the forum... the breeder... the vet... hubby and I discussing it... we decided to go through with it. I've never thought he should look any different either!!

All the natural eared boxers on here are SO adorable with their floppy ears... but I truly am glad we got it done. If we did get another boxer... and it were a girl I'm not sure I'd get them done. I want my boy to look regal and just "damn good" and my girl to look sweet and cute... and even though Odin is all that... he looks more regal than sweet and cute. That's what we were wanting.
It's up to you... what YOU want... not anyone else. It's not anything any of us would look down on you for doing. Trust me... I thought the same thing... and no body was mean or rude about. JUST make sure you get a GREAT knowledgeable, experienced vet that knows what they are doing. I think it cost us $150 and it went SO well!! I know some people have problems with healing and taping etc. We luckily didn't. It was stitches for about a week, then no stitches and just healing, then taping for 5 days... and TADA... this was the day the tape came off.
The talk we all had over Odin's cropping is called "Odin's New Look" or "Odin's Ear Crop" I think... if you did a search in here to see what people were thinking, discussing... etc.
P.S.
They DO GROW into their ears... LOL They don't look as LONG on him now... and I'd always heard that but it's true!
