Re: Dogs
I have my own black Lab now for years and he's coming to the end of the line, I'll miss him badly. In general I don't know a lot about Dogs and always wondered why the used to cut off their tails. I remember some fella saying he knew a Man who would bite the tail off for a few bob, could that be true?.Re: Dogs
I think it a good thing now not to dock their tails but I think if it is a working dog, then the owner can have it docked - for the safety of the dog. A couple I know who live nearby had a visit from the SSPCA because their Rotties tails have been docked and both dogs are not over the cut-off age when the law came to force! Not sure what happened but I think they were fined!Re: Dogs
As Azz said unless for one of those reasons dogs should all have thier tails now and its illegal to dock otherwise.Re: Dogs
In a shooting/working gundog area, its a sensitive subject.Re: Dogs
Some of the previously docked breeds have strange tails, they didn't have to worry so much about the set. When the ban first came in they didn't know what to do with the tails (in the show ring) they did allsorts to try to hide them!Thread Tools | |
