Long Tailed Yorkies? 1 Attachment(s) I know we have a teapot club for those of us with larger yorkies, is there anyone else here with a long tailed yorkie like Ellington? |
Yeah Molly and Lily both have long tails. We don't dock the tails in the UK any more I think it's illegal unless it's a working dog. |
Yes, my Allie has a full tail, and my late Molly had a full tail as well. I just love full tails. |
I wish mine did. The thought of them going through getting tail docked kills me :( |
My Winnie has a long tail!!! |

Harry's got a long plume-y tail - just the right height to sweep all my precious nick-nacks onto the floor....:eek: :D Sally + Harry x |
My girlie Maya has a full tail!!! I love it!:) |
You all should start a group here...it might encourage others to request no docking here in the states. I miss my Roxy's plume tail. It was beautiful. |
3 Attachment(s) Jackson's reppin' the long tailed yorkies. I love when he's in the pool and all you see is that tail flying out of the water like he's waving his flag, LOL |
Yup, both of mine have the long tail...I am soooo glad they do! |
I just adore the long tails, more to love:D It makes me kind of sad inside to watch my happy little girls wave their tiny stumps. I wish that the US would stop the practice, or at least make it acceptable to show any breed with their natural tail. It just seems barbaric to me, and also the way some breeds have their ears cropped too:( It just seems weird to cut pieces off of a dog to conform to the "breed standard" |

It DID seem strange at first, previously we've had Boxers, Schnauzers etc. all of course with cropped tails. When the Law first came into force - to see (especially) a Boxer with a long tail, just didn't look right - they looked like cross-breeds. But now, a few years down the line, we're totally used to it - it doesn't even occur to me anymore. And, of course, all the backstreet 'hacking-offs' and the subsequent pain and infection have disappeared.....thank goodness! :) Sally + Harry x |
I have 2 adults with tails, and 2 puppies with tails. I also have 3 adults with docked tails and 2 puppies with docked tails. |
I had a Shih Tzu with a beautiful plume of a tail for 15 years. When I first saw Gracie as a puppy I didn't think too much about her lack of a tail. One day as I watched her from behind and saw that little tail just a wagging a mile a minute I was reminded of how sad it was that she couldn't show off her emotions with a full beautiful tail. I don't know if they will ever outlaw tail docking in this country. I think making it against the law would be going a bit too far but it would be nice if the AKC would stop demanding that the tail be docked as part of the breed standard. |
