I don't know if everyone( I know some of you have) has read the posts to "dock or not" where I posted a youtube video of a tail docking, I posted a couple of days ago. I think it is worth watching!

I also loved the quote (in someones signature) "We can judge the heart of a man by his treatment of animals. Immanuel Kant " Very appropriate for this post I must say.

I also love Yorkitalk, the discussion has been very intelligent and thought provoking! I think I might just leave my next litters tail un docked and see how it goes!!!!
I'm glad you agree with most of my post but again, in my experience with the litters I've had docked there were no tenderness after the first 5 to 10 minutes....maybe yours wasn't done right? I've had 11 puppies tails docked and I have to honestly say I've never had that happen.
And by the way my yorkies are treated better than I treat my husband LOL...he sometimes gets jealous of the dogs because I always say...ever given the ultimatime of him or them I'll show him the door
