| Yes - I like the look. But if it were to ever be outlawed I wouldn't mind. |

| i personally wish it was outlawed here, but my yorkies do have their tails docked, emeralds babies we left them partly because I didn't have the nerve to do it, but I have seen some with tails and i thought they were adorable!

| I've never seen a yorkie whos tail hasn't been docked. How do they carry them? I like the looks of the other breeds with tails, so I guess if the changed the standard it would be ok. So that is a firm MAYBE. LOL |

| I really dont like the sounds of the docking proceedure so If I had a choice I would have my dogs undocked. Unfortunately they were docked when I got them.

| In the UK its more common to see an undocked yorkie than a docked one. That said, my Pippa is docked, I like the look of docked but if she'd had a litter i wouldnt have had them docked. I think its an unnecessary tradition which is fading in the Uk as its illegal here unless done by a vet and a lot of vets wont do it. Uk kennel club standard is either docked or undocked

| When my boy wags that little stub I sometimes wish he had a full tail. I have never seen one with a full tail either but I am sure it looks beautiful just the same.
