Thanks Nancy I do hope that they repeat the research. Also I found the stats of in home injuries interesting to read.


Also length of tail might as well have a higher risk to break. The longer the tail the more *(whip or speed of wag), I can attest to that. Zoey had a long tail, much longer than Dara's, and boy when Zoeys tail got going it was like a whip into the back/side of your legs. Also her tail in our front hallway would whip side to side and hit either wall......


The stats will just have to come in a review maybe 2018 might be a good thing to do. It remains to be seen how breeders will weight the importance of tail length and curve of tail with in the overall structure of their breed. While all FCI standards were changed to accomadate this new European law, many standards tried to be as general as possible in describing the tail, after all they had no idea in the beginning what a long tail looked like in their breed.
