By Otto On August 25, 2010 Under Pets

To clip your pitbull’s ears, you should be very prepared. You must primarily be absolutely sure of your pet’s age is ok for ear clipping. It is a practice that is very frowned upon these days as it inflicts a certain degree of pain to your pitbull. Sometimes, people will call this an act of mutilation.

Some questions about Ears Clipping For Pitbull

Does the question of why you clip your pitbull’s ears ever dawn to you? Has it got to do with the fact that you are putting him on a show? Even so, you might want to imagine the amount of pain your pet will go through. However, if you just want to do it for appearance sake, then I advice you to drop the idea. It puts your pet at risk of getting an ear infection.

Why not get them a fancy collar instead? Some bling bling to decorate them and still not hurt them? How about spending some money on a nice dog collar? Don’t you think that will make them happier and love you even more?

Most dog will love to have their ears rubbed and clipping your pitbull’s ear will take away that joy from them. Subjecting them through the pain of having their ears clipped and wounded is enough reason for them not desiring anyone to touch their ears ever again! Why would you want to do something that causes a life long negative impact in the relationship between you and your pet? The end result of that psychological scarring may accompany them till the end of their life!

Let me ask you a question, would you be afraid of the dark after you have actually seen a ghost? Of course you would. A lot of times, we remain afraid of an event even it happened once. Having such traumatic experiences requires psychological therapy and even that itself is not a guaranteed cure. Try imagine being a dog and asking for psychological help. That is not going to work. It would equivalent to dreaming the impossible.

Maybe you really need to clip your pitbull’s ears, for show or competition. At least wait for the right age before you do it. You may end up saying goodbye to your pitbull if you clip its ears too early or too late at its age. Do not attempt to do it by yourself as that will lead to a flawed procedure. It is going to be a mess if you do so and most likely you may ending up causing the death of your pet. Why not go see a vet and ask for their professional opinion on the matter of clipping your pitbull’s ears. Ask your vet, how old should a pitbull be to have its ears clipped? Getting the age wrong will most likely leave you with an unwanted incident.
