I can't believe what I'm reading here on yorkie talk. Docking? Try MUTILATION! Chopping off animals tails is against the law in the EU (that's European Union) and for good reason- it's called CRUELTY TO ANIMALS!

Young yorkies in France all have their tails and they're beautiful. There is no reason to continue such a brutal and inhumane practice. I assumed that since the USA is so far ahead of the rest of the world (or used to be anyway ) in technology and civil rights issues that something like widespread and socially accepted animal mutilation was in the past. I'm glad I've found a worthwhile cause that must be addressed to help yorkies across the states.
