Right now, I'm using hemostats and clamping below the dew claw. Clamp it for 15 sec. or so, then twist it around in a circle and the claw pops right off. However, I've had to go in a few times and cut a little more because it didn't get it all. |

Ok, that's what I have. Mine are curved. I just wasn't sure if they were sharp enough to remove the whole claw. I thought maybe the nippers would be stronger, but possibly not sharp enough to cut well. |

Sorry, but there is no way in heck I would let a vet cut a dogs tail off. Niyah was purchased that way because she is 2 and it was done a long time ago but that is barbaric imo. I know that people do this because that is the standard with AKC but I would like to see the US ban this practice in this country like England did recently. I cannot understand why PETA has not got involved with this to stop this from happening. AKC should accept dogs for who they are and would sure like to know who started this whole thing years ago in the first place. |

I was just going to start a thread about this! So sould I do the tails and dew claws at 4 days old?? I wasn't sure what day. My babies are 2 days old now. This will be my first time and I am sooo nervous but I know I can do it. tx |
I always dock tales on day four as long as the pups are strong and healthy. |

I really feel tail docking should stop i love the long tails on my babies. It fans out so beautifully and they have something to wag. I do like the dew claws though because im always worried they will get snagged on something later in life. But glad you had a problem free first tail docking experience.:) |
