My mother in law had a girl's tail done that was too weak as a puppy to have it docked, so as an adult, she had it done by laser, and what was removed was VERY thin and tiny...the dog didn't even miss it, she never "looked back". She was put under for a very short amount of time, and able to come home in a matter of 2 hours...very simple, no problems. I'm sorry your mother in laws puppies had problems. If anyone ever needs tails amputated as adults, I hope they will only do it by laser...any other way really is just not fair to the dog when there is new and better technology available...of course if you didn't say if she was showing these dogs or not, if not, why not just leave the tail, it is really pretty in my opinion, though of course I didn't write the American standard. |
No they are not being showed, they are not even registered. She said she just prefers them that way, I was furious she would do that, and so was my father in law. I thought they were adorable with their tails, and I saw NO reason to put them through an unnecessary surgery.
