Ear Cropping is a personal decision for each Dogo Owner. Dr. Antonio Nores Martinez ‘s original breed standard for the DOGO Argentino was that they must have cropped ears. The Dogo Argentino was designed to hunt large game and cropped ears prevented prey from grabbing and biting them. As more people select Dogo Argentino’s for family companions and guardians, some choose not to crop the ears. We crop our males ears and leave our females with their natural ears.
If you intend to compete in dog shows, or hunt with your Dogo, especially large game such as wild boar, you will probably want to have the ears cropped. The breed standards for AKC/ UKC accept natural or cropped ears.
