I worked a Peke that was the same way Mardelin, and he didn't have a docked tail, but wouldn't think twice about snapping either. |

They all have some lil issue....all my show dogs tails are docked, all docked in the same manner and they don't have rear issues....Oh! I might add that her brother and siblings from earlier and subsequent litters have the same issue.....could be in the line.... I've also, seen others that have been pounced on from the rear and have a fear of anyone coming up and touching their rears..... I have ones that are sensitive to the way they are handled when placed in a stack position....don't touch my legs, don't touch my neck, leave my ears alone.....just work around those issues.... |
:aimeeyork I prefer the tail docked. I think it makes a more balanced outline. |
Well its like the baby ear peircing issue. Its PURELY cosmetic, but it doesnt cause much pain and some people just like it. I had my ears peirced as a baby and let me tell you, i really dont remember it and has cause me no psychological issues. lol i earned all my issues on my own :P lol jk. as ceasar (my idol/future husband.. lol jk hes married) sais "dogs live in the moment". as far as preference.. ive always like doggies with docked tails lol i dunno i just like to see those lil stubs wag. |
3 Attachment(s) Oh dear, what debate has been going on here when I am away in my sick-bed, lol :D Still not well, but a few clarifications...... Yorkshire is not a town, lol, but a county.;) I have said in previous threads that the Yorkie was brought from Scotland and bred with others to make a very small - the smaller the better, rat-catching dog for the coal pits of Yorkshire.....that is a well known fact....and the origins of the Yorkshire Terrier are agreed to be Scotland - with input from England, who perfected them for the job they were needed for.;) Hope this helps all the countries who love this wee dog and wonder where it came from....a wee bit of knowledge from the land of it's fathers, lol. As for tail docking - I have to agree it is all down to preferrence, and my three have thankfully never had a problem with a broken tail - so they have been saved from all forms of pain, for any reason. :) They are all happy smiling wee babies at the mo ! See pics...... :animal-pa Debra - falling apart and flamin' sore, and ripped to pieces, BUT STILL HERE ! |
I preferred docked but not nubbed. Gracie has a little nubbin for a tail. London & Dallas's tails are a bit longer and I love it. |

I bet it was the Irish emigrants who took it accross the pond, lol ! :) Feeling sore - so resting just now:( |
3 Attachment(s) Here's those tail pics I promised I would take - trouble is, when you want a waggy tail, they get all offended and keep sitting on them....so then thought what makes them wag the most, and where they won't sit....Yes, Walkies !!! :animal-pa Debra x x x x |
My babies have full tails, that curl over their back like a maltese. I love them with full tails! |
