Don't get me wrong, I love Gizzy's little docked tail, but if I ever get another yorkie, I thought that's what I would do. I love the long tails!
I am curious to see if any of the show breeders on here would agree to that. If you had a person come to you to buy a puppy and asked that you leave its tail undocked and paid up front for the puppy - would you leave the tail undocked? I'm really interested to see if any of you would agree to that and your reasons why or why not.
