Thread: Tail Docking

I think you missed my point - you dont have a case until there are tons of dogs out there with tail damage. Trying to get the point across before they banned it hasn't worked. Now you have to show them the results of their decision. I doubt we are going to see this damage in the HPRs due to thier work style but if there ever was a case for docking it is the working spaniel.

No I got your point, what you missed is me not breeding is not trying to make a point. I won;t produce dogs i know are going to get hurt and most especially won;t do it to make a point. As you correctly point out, [plenty will, so not my problem.
