I can't imagine the pain the little puppy goes through by having his tail cut off. It really doesn't make sense to me as to why it was started, its cruel to cut bits of an animal off.
This is just my opinion and everybody is allowed their own, of course, and different countries and cultures do things differently. |
Amen, And I do not allow the dew claws to be removed, Just one more cruel thing to add to the list of USA standard yorkies. And I have never had a problem with keeping their dew claws, just another nail to trim. That is it. And thanks for pointing out that the original yorkies tails were never chopped off. How this started I agree is crazy.
