I had Adie's tail docked at three days old by her breeder, but there was a mix-up and Skeeter's tail didn't get docked. By the time I found out about it it was too late for the breeder to do it. I debated about having his tail amputated when he was neutered and posted the thought to the list. I got an education and a half! Although I like the look of a docked tail a lot better than the look of the full tail the full tail will grow on you. As one of the posters on my thread said: It is a shame for an owner to inflict pain on an puppy just because of their own vanity. THAT got my attention! |
