Confused

The lady pierced it near the base of the ear. Which is baiscally where they scratch when they get itchy.
I've noticed that it doens't bother alot of you and that is your perogative.
However, like PinkMartini said, my dog is n't my fashion accesory. And shouldn't be used in that manner. I do agree that it does hurt the animal to be tattooed and have their tails docked. But it is required for showing purposes.

And even though my Deegan isn't for showing purposes, it was the breeder that docked his tail before I even knew I was getting him. It wouldn't have bothered me one bit to have a full tail.

I just think that there is no purpose to have their ears peirced unneccesarily it could be ripped out during play, scratching etc.
And it's pain, and possible infection, for not reason other than to get attention for yourself.
