Okay... I went to Banfield at the Pet Smart off 400, ext. 14. I went in and asked if they docked tails and did dewclaws on yorkies. Their answer was
Yes!! They said that they could not do it today, but could Monday and could not quote me a price today (since it was Sat.), but gave me a card with the name on it (the person that quotes their prices) and told me to call him on Monday and he could give me a price. I would also have to schedule it soon since they have to be done shortly after being whelped - a few days, she thought. So yes, they do dock tails and do dewclaws. Where did you say you got your information from? I just want to make sure that since others read this forum that they get correct information, so when reporting information for others, it needs to be correct.
