Last Sunday, a pitbull pup died after getting his ears cropped. The veterinarian said the bleeding did not stop. She had to re-open the stitches, but it did not help.
It breaks my heart to hear such news, especially when I saw the pup hours before he died. He was avoiding his brother (our pet) who was trying to play with him. They both got their ears cropped together.
Still, I don't get why dog owners want to get their dog's ears cropped or tails cut off. Do they know that the life of their pets are at risk?
Don't get me wrong, I do not want to blame the vet who performed the operation. I just cannot stomach these things. I had to fight nail and tooth not to get the ears of our pitbulls' cropped, but the men in the family won anyway. What is it with men and wanting their pitbulls' ears cropped?
My brother said it's all for the looks, but I thought our pits looked just fine and just as fierce without getting their ears cropped. It's not like they will catch some illness if they don't get their ears cropped. Seriously, I.D.O.N.O.T.G.E.T.I.T!!!!!!
I hope pitbull owners do not get their dogs' ears cropped.
Another pitbull's life was wasted.
This is for Tiny, who did not get the chance to really enjoy his pitbull years. And, a plea to all pitbull owners, please do not get the ears of your pitbulls cropped. Please save them the misery and pain. Please save their lives.
