I doubt she did it to put her dog in pain. My guess would probably be that she is sick of people saying "Thats a yorkie? I didnt think they had long tails." and since she was already having a surgery & that just like someone else on here just had they're dogs dew claws removed, it is better to get it all done during the spay/neuter since they are under. But it sounds like the vet didnt leave enough skin & now theres a big problem. No matter how long they've been a vet they need to stop & think before they just start wacking

These mishaps cause so much unneeded pain & can lead to infection, even death. Its easy to judge when your yorkie is wagging its little stub off and you say I would love her/him the same w/a tail-but I guarantee that unless you just didnt want to pay for it, you would consider it, I think I might

. I hope she isnt paying for the repeat visits that are complications of the surgery & if I was your friend I would find his business on yahoo local & leave a review about her experience that might help others. I hope he is doing his best to get her heeled up & better. Tell your friend to give her some baby asprin if the vet didnt give her any pain meds. I'm sure she regrets the decision now, but whats done is done
I hope she recovers soon, keep us posted.
