I like my yorkies tails docked.....especially for sanitary reasons. Think about how much garbage they could pick up on their tail fur when they are out and about if they were in medium to full length coat.
It definately should be done by someone qualified and trained to do it in the most pain-free manner possible. |
I agree with most of your points especially nail clipping lol.I guess because its banned here in the UK it must mean something although Im willing to learn otherwise.

It upset me to be called these names including a "FREAK" just because I don't see anything that is that wrong with the practice. I'm so upset that we put millions of dogs to sleep each year, and breeders are breeding unhealthy dogs that will have to go through so much pain in their lives, and puppy millers and others are raising dogs in completely inhumane conditions, and yet people make such a big deal out of tail cropping. It just seems like the focus should be elsewhere. |

Yep and thats why I love this site. We are all dog lovers and none of us would do harm to our babies which is why I like to hear both sides. I think you guys are going to convert me lol
