Sometimes I wonder who sits around and comes up with such things. I know it's part of the breed standard, so I'm sure I'll have it done if I ever breed and have puppies I'm going to sell, but I still don't see what value it adds. I love to see the little tails wag. I have one Yorkie that was a rescue, and she wasn't docked properly, so she basically has no tail at all because what little she has is covered by her hair
