This is a list for those who show in conformation and choose not to crop ears and/or dock tails. Challenges of the show ring, judges who will put up uncropped dogs, and other issues are discussed. This is NOT a pro vs. con list to discuss whether cropping should be legal or illegal. No arguments, flaming or undiplomatic comments will be tolerated. List members are mostly Great Dane owners but, Boxers, Dobermans, Schnauzers, Bouviers, Briards, Boston Terriers, Miniature Pinchers, etc. - all are breeds welcome.
NO POSTINGS ENCOURAGING SUPPORT and/or DISCUSSION OF POLITICAL ISSUES ARE PERMITTED. This is a "neutral zone" where we focus on supporting our showing and breeding efforts in a positive manner.
