We have three with cropped, three not. The three with cropped never get infections. And looks will always matter for intimidation in a real encounter. Also, the cropped ears are SO MUCH less likely to get bit by the other dogs. One time, one almost bled out from an ear bite. Red all over my home.
I think people are very quick to rule out any possibility of a single benefit to the cropping. I am one of the last people to ever support a surgery for anything.
my parents, with their uncropped girl, went through a nightmare where they could not get a knick on her ear to heal. It took literally like a year cuz she would keep opening it. My parents take very good care of her too, my dad taking her to the park twice a day almost every day. This is another common reason cited for getting crops. We also had this happen with our male, it didn't take as long but we didn't want to leave him alone in case he ever opened it to where he could bleed too much. It was so tense.

Floppy ears make the lovable and cute even cuter
