Many of the, shall we say "unprofessional" breeders that dock tails do it way too short. It is very dangerous because if they cut it too short the nerves of the spine can be affected. I suppose an inexperienced vet could do this as well. If you look at the tail of a show Yorkie or a Yorkie bred by a show breeder they have a good sized docked tail that is quite noticeable....even with long hair. |
