Here's two pics I found online, and they are SO precious and adorable. I do believe that the only reason the tails were docked were so that they could be pulled out by their stumps when they were hunting rats in the coal mines. I don't think anyone on here has their Yorkies out working in the coal mines, so I dont' see why anyone continues to dock at all.     |  
 
  Yes I did read an article on hunting dogs and they say no one really does this any more so it should be banned, the article was from England but I think USA needs to wake up and change laws also. Oh those pics are the cutest, and to think we have a need to chop off their tails, I think they look adorable with their tails, thanks for the pic, now I know I am not doing this canceling the vet visit, We are keeping the tail.
