My pup Mika has her full tail. It is illegal here in the Uk to dock dogs tails just for appearance. It can still be done by a vet for medical reasons of course and I think workings dogs are still allowed to be docked. Personally I prefer all dogs to keep their tails, they are just so expressive! A dog without a tail can't communicate fully, they are still beautiful of course, I just think that we shouldn't take away what nature gave them without good reason! ( A dogs health and safety being a good reason as is the case with neutering!) I also have an Old English Sheepdog who was born before docking was banned, however he is not docked and I am so grateful to the breeder for that, his tail never stops wagging!!! |
