Sorry, but that is not entirely true. There is a condition called phimosis which is a " stenosis or narrowness of preputial orifice so that the foreskin cannot be pushed back over the glans penis" pg P69 Taber's Cyclopedic Medical Dictionary.
Ask any adult male who has had to have a later-in-life circumcision due to phimosis, and I am sure they wish their mother's had done it as an infant.
Docking and ear cropping will be hot topics for years to come. Certainly nothing regal about a boxer or doberman with floppy ears either. JMO
