What's the point in dubbing????

What is wrong with wanting to preserve the historical appearance of a breed? Schnauzers were developed to be ratters (Miniature, Standard), guard dogs (Standard, Giant) and herding dogs (Giant). With the exception of the herding purpose, cropping and docking have historical precedence in the breed--most guard dogs developed for that purposed were cropped and docked, and many ratters were either cropped or docked and sometimes both. Just because you don't like it doesn't mean it's wrong. (I don't have a clue about dubbing, though.)

Did I say it was "wrong"? I don't recall.

Thanks.

Your condescending manner kind of said it for you. Unless you're going for inscrutable. If you are, it's really not working.

Cheers.

i think it's understood by everyone, that that is the reason why someone crops ears and tails. so, unless you were trying to stir the pot, i see no reason for questioning why someone would crops ears

thanks

Isn't it amazing how much we "know" when we choose to assume things, jump to conclusions, etc.

I think the OP's questions have been answered, so we will go ahead and shut the squabbling down.

Thanks for your participation
