No, I've never thought of doing it to my dog. That would be stupid. But some people do. For those who say that its cruel, its really not. Dogs don't have that much sensation in thier ear flaps and its not any worse than getting a baby's ear pierced. It just looks ridiculous to me.

Can honestly say I never have. And I imagine it's not a very good idea. Dogs will be very likely to scratch or rip the earring out. Also, they have much more blood flowing through their ears than humans have.

No, that would be very cruel. Dog's ears are so much more sensitive, and it will hurt them. You would be a very unkind and heartless person to pierce a dog's ear. And I'm sure it is against the law. There probably isnt any person who does pierce their ears. You are the stupidest person alive!

Some people do have their dogs pierced and tattooed (and not tattooed for ID).

I personally think it's stupid and cruel. Not only is it completely unnecessary, but also a hazard. Earrings can get caught on something on ripped out, which would be very painful for the dog.
If a person likes body modification, they should do it to themselves, but not their animals.

Not the best idea in the world since chances are the dog will try and scratch it off. Besides unlike us dogs have huge blood veins in their ears and it will bleed like crazy. Think of some other way to torment your pet.

I have thought about it just to see what it would look like, but I would never go as far as ACTUALLY doing it, that's torture. Especially since dogs ears are one of their weak spots..

It's highly likely that it would irritate the ear, the dog would scratch at it, and rip out the earring... think of the pain...

My ears aren't pierced, and I'm darn sure my dogs aren't going to be, either!
