You can show before most US judges with undocked tails, but brace yourself for a lot of grief from breeders who are stubbornly clinging to the notion that the tail spoils the whole look of the dog---can't remember the exact way I alst heard it put...Anyway, it is barbaric and illegal in most civilized countries. |
I would consider it barbaric if someone put a rubberband around the tail and let it rott off. That's bararic.
