The Dogue is a breed of dog that was bred in South America in the 1920s for the primary purpose of hunting. The Dogue is physically strong, but its large ears limit its efficiency, so people trim its ears to avoid being attacked by prey or other dogs as a weakness. Properly trimmed ears can make the Dogue look more handsome and majestic. For this reason, ear trimming has become a mandatory procedure for Dugos in beauty contests and dog fighting competitions. Moreover, a pair of beautifully trimmed ears is an important criterion for judging the competition.
