COSMETIC EAR CROPPING

Dr. Saini and staff at Animal Medical Clinic in Milpitas is proud to offer you the most comprehensive, high quality, all breed, cosmetic ear cropping service. Dr. Saini has been practicing small animal medicine and surgery in the Bay Area for the last 25 years. He learned the skill of all breed cosmetic ear cropping from his former colleague and  mentor Dr. Samaan. Dr. Saini has been performing high quality cosmetic ear cropping for over 30 years on all breeds of dogs including: Great Dane, Doberman Pinscher, Miniature Pinscher, Schnauzer, Boxer, Dogo Argentino, Pitbull, Cane Corso, and Staffordshire Terrier.

   Our cosmetic ear cropping package includes a pre-surgical blood panel, pre-surgical tranquilizer/analgesic, Propofol/Isoflurane gas anesthesia, blood pressure and pulse oximetry anesthesia monitoring, pain medication and antibiotic injections after the procedure, high quality suture material, bandages, and e-collar, hospitalization during recovery, and recheck and suture removal appointment 2 weeks after surgery. Oral pain medication and antibiotics will be sent home with the client to ease pain and prevent infection.

   We have learned from years of experience that attention to detail, high quality medicine and surgery, post-operative pain and infection control, and the best after care by highly qualified and trained staff is the key to a positive outcome. That is our ultimate goal at Animal Medical Clinic.


   At Animal Medical Clinic, we are proud to say that during this time Dr. Saini has never experienced any major complications or complaints associated with his ear cropping services. He has an outstanding record of producing beautiful standing ears with a 99 percent success rate of both ears standing when clients follow the proper post-surgical guidelines. Dr. Saini has performed this procedure on puppies from regular clients at Animal Medical Clinic, as well as referred clients from reputable breeders in the area. Many of his clients have taken their dogs to local, state, and national competitions. Whether a show dog or companion, we understand that majority of owners just want a dog they can be proud of.

FAQS

​What you need to know about ear cropping:
Many clients have questions about various aspects of ear cropping. We've provided helpful information below that explains choices you will need to make before your pet’s upcoming surgery.


                                         
Q: Should I have my puppy’s ears cropped?
This is a personal decision. Ear cropping is not right for every dog and it is not the right choice for every person who owns a dog. We recommend a consult appointment with our veterinarian if you are unsure about whether or not to go forth with the procedure. There is a tremendous amount of aftercare involved to make sure the ears stand properly, and an owner who is not committed to being diligent about the aftercare should probably not crop their pet. A consult appointment will give you the opportunity to discuss the pros and cons of ear cropping and will help you to make the best decision for your new puppy.

Q: At what age should I crop my puppy?
The ideal age depends on the breed and texture of ear cartilage.  Dr. Saini has done ear cropping on puppies ages 8 to 16 weeks. The procedure can be done on puppies up to 6 months of age.

Q: Will I need to make an appointment to get my puppy’s ears cropped?
Yes, all surgical procedures are by appointment only. We strongly recommend a pre-surgical exam and consultation. During this time, the doctor will discuss the ear cropping procedure in detail including size and shape of desired crop, risks, post operative care and pain control. There will be no charge for the pre-surgical exam and consultation. The ear cropping surgery appointments are scheduled on certain days of the week. We ask that the owner drops off the puppy in the morning and pick-up him or her up in the afternoon. 

Q: How soon after the surgery will I have to comeback for a recheck? 
For a positive outcome, sutures and bandages are left on the ears until the edges are healed completely. You will need to come back to our clinic for suture and bandage removal 2 weeks after the surgery. 

​Q: How long will it take for the ears to stand?
Most pit bulls, miniature pinschers, and miniature schnauzers do not  require taping appointments for the ears to stand. Other breeds like doberman pinschers, danes, and boxers may require 1-2 months of proper taping until the ears will stand. We recommend the taping of ears at 7 days interval. We prefer that clients return to us for all posting and taping appointments. It is important to us that the aftercare is handled properly so that the outcome of the cropping is the best possible. 

Q: Can you do a “custom crop” to make the ears look the way I want? 
If you are looking for a particular look, we recommend an ear crop consultation. Ear crops are designed to compliment a dog’s look and are based on an individual dog’s head and ear length, purpose of the pet (show or companion) and the breed specific standards. 

Q: What are the pre-surgery requirements at Animal Medical Clinic?
All puppies should have at least 2 DHPP vaccines and 2 dewormings and should be free from any external parasites (fleas and ticks). ​
