Question:

I’ve researched 2-different pet hospitals. One does lazor ear cropping and one does it the old fashion way. Now I need help deciding which way is the better way!!

   Explain what better means in your vocabulary. Because in the topic of cropping ears, my better is don’t do it.
   Natural dogs look the most attractive.

   I believe laser causes less bleeding & quicker healing time.
   However the MOST important issue is the quality & skill of the vet doing the work rather than the method of laser vs. cutting. This is something to be absolutely sure about as you can’t put cartilage back if it is a bad job.

   I’d go with the lazor – it should be less painful for the animal and will heal faster than the old way (as I believe the lazor codorizes the wound – keeps it from bleeding as much).
