There is not a single YTCA breeder on this forum and yet the majority of us have yorkies who had their tails docked for no other reason than archaic breed standard. What is the purpose....to better the breed? Hiw in the world do docked tails make this breed better? This is just plain wong.

To compare the pain involved with ear piercing to tail docking is not logical since the pain from the tail mutilation is so much greater and lasts so much longer. Just for the record, I did not pierce my daughter's ears until they requested it.
You have said many times Kim, that you were friends with all you dogs breeders...My question is..How many of your dogs tails are intake?
