With cropping Dane ears, you never know how long you are going to have to be taping... and sometimes the taping does not even work and the ears just fall. Too much of a risk right now. In the future, I plan on getting a nice Show Quality Great Dane from a reputable show breeder... that is when I will crop for sure.

While I think that cropping makes them look more "regal", I prefer the natural personally.

It's so far in the future that it's all a little blurry, I would never want to show, so I think I would lean towards rescue of any new dog. (I think)

I'm glad you're leaving the ears natural. I prefer it too.(like I even have a say

)

WOW! They have gotten huge! They are cuter then ever, especially the two you picked out.

The fawn colored ones have really gotten lighter. If I remember correctly they almost looked grayish......couldn't really tell what color they were going to be. Now they defiantly look fawn. Very cute!

Wow, they are HUGE!!!!

They are absolutely gorgeous. I really like a Dane with natural ears too. Glad you are keeping them natural. I guess I am sort of a freak though. I like the look of a Doberman with cropped ears but I like a Dane with natural ears.

I really prefer natural ears on all danes, but I really really love cropped ears on Harlequins... it looks so beautiful... it is just such a HUGE hassel. But I have to admit the look of a Natural Eared Dane always get me. I love Love Love them.
CrazyDog... I know, hehe LOL they are surely Fawns now. One of the girl fawns has gotten sooo darn light its crazy.
Inga, I do prefer cropped ears on a dobe.
I'm going CRAZY!
