They have to cloak the practice in 'soft' terms like 'docking' to prevent weirdos understanding what they're talking about and going ballistic, making embarrassing scenes and drawing attention and all that. While the hopeful defender AKC proclaims to the press that cutting puppies ears and tails off are Important procedures for Important dogs doing Important things for the Nation, like Military, Police, and Humanitarian services, the rationale doesn't translate over to little yorkies and poodles. They tell you to go ask your vet, and the good vets of the world don't like chopping off ears and tails for no good reason, and have plainly and strongly said so. Thus the AKC will withdraw support of the YT club (who I'm not convinced even exist as they don't answer emails) in favor of self defense, since their position is unsustainable in the face of popular public and political passion to restore the earth to a more natural state.

Do you have proof for any on the statements you have made regarding the AKC or YTCA or is this just your opinion.
Also, I must say you are very persistent. I would love to have you join a group whose major concerns are puppy-mills, high-kill shelters, and animal cruelty in general. These groups really need someone with your persistence and perhaps you could save a life or two.
