Share: The Veterinary Animal Welfare Coalition is supporting a new BVA and The FOAL Group petition calling on the Government to close all legal loopholes and end the trend in ear-cropped dogs.
A coalition of leading veterinary bodies and animal welfare charities across the UK has put its weight behind a new petition calling on the Government to close all the legal loopholes that allow the cruel and illegal practice of ear cropping to continue.
Ear cropping is a painful surgical procedure where the floppy part of a puppy’s ear is cut off, often without anaesthesia or pain relief. In many cases, the ear stump is then attached to a hard surface in a process known as splinting, to shape them upright whilst they are healing. Ear cropping is carried out purely for cosmetic reasons, without any health benefits for the animal.
