There is a movement in this country to stop this abuse and abolish all cosmetic surgery on dogs including, tail docking and ear clipping. Something many ohter countries have already done.
Some will argue that the puppies feel no pain and this is a falsehood. I think if puppies are to be sold as pets, their tails should not be docked. They are beautiful long. Our country is way behind in enlightenment in this area and we need to catch up. Please support the legislation being proposed to stop this barbaric practice. |
