But don't you think if it was banned and eventually accepted that it would then stop uneducated breeders butchering their puppies causing suffering and in some cases even death?...this has to be stopped...if the Top Dogs were being shown with their tail intact these 'breeders' wouldn't feel the need to make THEIR puppies 'more pleasing to the eye' so they would be more attractive to potential buyers..
It's similiar to BYB and puppymills imo.. supply and demand...people want the tiny yorkies..the BYB breed tiny yorkies like mad to make the money..people want the docked tail..so they will be doing it themselves rather than taking them to a vet which will cost them..with disastrous consequences in some cases..
