I do feel sorry for the pups that have their tails docked too short.
There are other breeds I prefer with a docked tail. Airedales are prettier in my opinion with a stubby tail. |
I agree -- I like them both ways. I prefer my yorkie to look as the standard dictates but I can sure appreciate the beauty of a fully displayed tail. Someone just recently posted a video of their parti/Biewer (sorry not sure which) tail -- the video is all about the tail -- wagging, furled, unfurled, showing off like peacock plummage. You can't watch that video without admiring that tail! It is gorgeous!
I debated the first time about docking a litter's tails, but when I saw how little it affected them, I didn't hesitate the second time.
