we had our pitbulls ears done, and i will NEVER do it again, because even getting pain medicine 2-3 times a day he would just sit there and scream out of pain all the time. it looks "nice", don't get me wrong, but to me it just wasn't worth the torment he and i both went though (i felt very guilty for intentionally putting him through that). his also got infected because our vet wrapped them too tightly and they couldn't breath at ALL through the layers of bangages, also his bandages did come off really fast and we had to have them rewrapped twice a week the first two weeks, because his ears bothered him so much he'd paw at them b/c the infection and we ended up putting an e-collar on him to make him stop. we ended up changing vets after the second week, because i just knew something wasn't right (which is when we found out they were wrapping it wrong, and that they were horribly infected). it took them 4 hours to clean his ears and let them air out enough and go down in swelling enough that they could re-wrap them and let him go home. it was a very horrible experience for us, especially since everyone told us it was a very "simple" procedure that didn't hurt them much if they got their medicine.
