Brister you took what I said completely out of context and compared yorkies to ALL breeds.

I live in the desert where cactus is not only natural landscaping, but preferred. People have them lining the sidewalks. Not just that but goat heads grow wild here. If my yorkies had a full tail and fur on it and went wagging, they'd have 1000 goatheads or thorns from cactus stuck all up in their tails. Sanitary reasons YES--dogs with fur like Yorkies have their butt fur clipped really short so POOP doesnt stick to it.....I could only imagine what an unsanitary MESS a yorkie with a full tail, 2 inches of hair and an episode of diarrhea would cause. Your being 110% closed minded....

Yes-yorkies with full tails have injured them before as well.
