I recently purchased a Rottweiler dog from my sister who is expecting a child soon and as her Rott hasn't been socialized with kids, she wanted to give her to me as I'm moving from Florida.
She is a beautiful, AKC registered Rottie who I wanted to show and possibly breed with my friend's Rott who is moving with me. Even if I don't breed Charlotte, I would still like to show her.
Is it still possible to dock her tail and crop her ears now? The ears aren't a huge deal but I would definitely like to dock her tail ASAP. I don't WANT to dock the tail as I personally don't agree with it but the AKC breed standard says it must be done.
Is it too late to have her tail docked and/or ears cropped?
* Just an additional question regarding cropping the ears of a Golden Retriever - my friend owns a 5 month old Golden and she wants to crop his ears. Can the procedure be done on a Golden Retriever or not? Don't ask me WHY she wants to - she just wants to, even though he is beautiful now.
