Yeah the AKC is now allowing uncropped ears on some breeds in dog shows. Like Boxers for example. Docked tails are still mandatory though.

Is the cropped where they make them stick up all "confused puppy" like? Uncropped is just natural?

I like natural better.

people tend to do it because they look "meaner" when cropped. Mine looks like a puppy still in the face and she is over 3 years now.

more focused directional hearing ability and fewer things to grab onto are more acceptable reasons.

Yeah, 'cause dogs have such a hard time hearing things with floppy ears.
