Why do Caucasians cut their ears? This is related to people's need to use the Caucasus to fight wolves and other wild animals to avoid being bitten. However, this habit has continued. Some people say that the Caucasus without cutting ears does not show its unique temperament, and long ears cover the ears and affect hearing.

Ear clipping should generally be done within 2-3 months after birth. Put a mask on the dog when cutting his ears. The assistant will protect his head. First, the hair was cut at the surgical site, then routine disinfection and local anesthesia were performed. The skin at the predetermined position will be cut by a scalpel.

Separate the skin from the cartilage, cut off the cartilage 2 cm away from the root of the ear, and the remaining skin will naturally form a sleeve shape, fully stop bleeding, apply anti-inflammatory powder or penicillin powder, suture the skin, and wrap it with gauze and absorbent cotton.

Tie the bandage and fix it to prevent scratches.

Ear cutting must be carried out in accordance with the "ear mold". If it is not cut properly, it will become a lifting ear in the future, which is not only unsightly, but also hinders the hygiene of the ear canal. Therefore, domestic pets don't have to pick their ears.

Broken ears are mainly used in some dog breeds such as Great Dane, Du Binquan, Caucasian, Newbarton, Bostonian and Poodle. From a medical point of view, surgery is not necessary, just to satisfy people's hobbies and habits. Now some European countries advocate banning this kind of operation. But some countries in the former Soviet Union and Eastern Europe are still going on. Because most dogs in China mainly come from Eastern Europe, Russia and other countries, we still continue and follow their model.

Ear-breaking surgery should generally be performed at 9 ~ 12 weeks old, when the head develops stably and the cartilage develops vigorously. Surgery should be based on the standard types, main hobbies, face shapes and so on of different breeds of dogs' ears.
