Personally, I would not do it at such a late age. Tails and claws are usually done between 3-5 days after birth. In MY opnion, it seems very cruel to do it to an adult dog. From what I have been told, it is more painful and recovery time is much longer. Tail can take weeks to heal while doing it to a pup just takes a couple of days.
In may other countries, it is against the law to dock tails and claws. I know there are groups here in America that are trying to get this law passed here, as well. |
