When it comes to ear cropping..... There are many thoughts on this subject. Pups should be done before 12 weeks for best results, we can have them done for around $325.-350.00 before you pick up or have your puppy flown to you. Cost of air travel or ear cropping is at the buyer’s expense. DO NOT have puppies ears done unless you are committed to either learning the stages of wrapping the ears or paying a vet to do it for you, Ive seen some stand (permanently) as early as 4-5 months I've also had to wrap till 18 months on slow to mature animals. There are show crops (for showing) and shorter crops (stand easier faster supposedly) for those who what there Danes to have the look they want. Dew claws.... not necessary to remove for showing. I have done both but tend to learn toward the less done to them surgically the better.

  

***If your application is approved, we will contact you regarding your puppy choice and request your deposit.  When approved, please be prepared at time of pick-up/delivery to provide us with a state issued photo ID and proof of residence (power bill is perfect).
