SethMurdoc said:i would say that there entirely different, given that they have the same theme animal. i did think of krein when i saw it the first time, so it does bear that much resemblence.
and for that matter i dont like either of them due to the cut off ears. only reason to ever do that is the same as a humans, if theres cancer or a bacterial infection that causes necrosis/unsavable tissue (or constant hemotoma's). if you do it for fighting, thats an entirely new level of why i dont like it.
Rat Finkenstein said:on many breeds it is standard practice to clip the Ears, and tails as well- It is for the look of the breed.
I have never seen a single Doberman without the ear and tail treatment. . . so are you saying all Dobermans are used for dog fighting? I could probably name off a dozen breeds that have their ears clipped as puppies.
I really think you are reading far too much into the picture.
Are these fighting dogs?
Rat Finkenstein said:So you must be against spaying and neutering animals? Human circumcision?
If you don't like how they trim tails and ears on different breeds, fine by me.
But it does not imply the animal is being used as a fighting dog.
