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. |
While I respect your opinion and realize that everyone is entitled to their own and they differ, I am shocked to read your post!
I found it incredibly insulting and rude!
I realize that this practice is illegal in Europe and may be here one day as well. We have many members here from Europe and they have voiced their opposition to the practice as well, but I must say, they were able to do so in a much less agressive fashion. No one is going to take seriously your point of view if it is coming accross as a rant and outright calling them "brutal" and "inhumane" while taking jabs at the US in general. Honestly! That was just disrespectful all around.
