Ear clipping has always been banned here in Australia...tail docking has just in the last 2 years been banned and many of the big breeders are not breeding until they can perhaps overthrow this decision somehow...

I always think that the American Dobermann looks so "forminable" as Jyebee says with the ears clippedl...makes them look really mean...note how soft Tasha looks with the lovely floppy ears...I have always disliked the clipped ear look!!! But it's in the eyes that you see the real softness!!
