How much would it cost to get my puppies ears cropped?

I live in NorthWest Indiana. I recently got a 3 month pitty puppy. I wanna get him a short crop on his ears. how much would this cost? what is the procedure? if you leave me paragraphs about how cruel this is im not reading it. Ive done my research i know theres pain meds and they arent in pain

Update:

Im pretty sure you guys are stupid. Its not too late Ive seen adult dogs get it. And no its not illegal either!

    It is getting a little late to do his ears but there are vets that will do it. It will cost you anywhere from $300.00 to $600.00 depending on the vet. Just find a good reputable vet that knows what they are doing.

    Don't worry. It's way too late. Cropping done now is completely out of the question.

    I wouldn't think of giving you "paragraphs", just the truth..... better known as the law.

    NO sane vet will perform said illegal act less they wish to be disbarred.

    Most vets refuse to crop ears less it's for a show dog & never a "short crop"... that IS mutilation.

    They aren't in pain huh..... that research is a hoax. It's completely unnecessary for this breed since they have NO place in the show ring. Folks that crop ears on Pits do it for their own "happy feelings" & to compensate for ... {fill in the blank.}

    If the breeder didn't have it done then it's too late to crop... it's done between 8 -12 wks. and a reputable breeder has it done before said pup goes home.

    Contact local vets to ask but I believe it is too late at 3 months old...

    It's too late. It needed to be done about a month ago.
