Bubbles didnt have hers docked or her dewclaws removed, she still looks, feels, and acts like a yorkie! To be honest, I am not a breeder so I don't know how the procedure is done. I do know that it is SOOO common, and it is done when the pups are so young, I doubt they feel A TON of pain, it happens so quickly. They wont be away from her for too long either, so I am sure that she will miss them for a moment, but as soon as they are back with her, she will be fine! Good Luck!
I dont think mine had his tail docked, it's pretty long. I love his tail longer, except at night his shadow kinda looks like a cat, with the long tail and big ears. I dont really like that lol
