Thread: Tail Docking

Urgent Survey for owners of Working Spaniels and HPRs

Recently The NZGTA presented a strong case to the Ministry of Primary Industry for maintaining docking in working spaniels and HPRs
We are asking all owners of working Spaniels and HPRs to complete the survey at

http://www.surveymonkey.com/r/NZGTATailSurvey2017 ;

it only takes a couple of minutes and will provide us with useful statistics on tail length and damage incurred. The survey holds data for if you own 2 dogs, if you own more than 2 please complete the survey however many times as necessary to provide information on all of your dogs. If you require a paper copy of the survey, have issues with the survey or have any new information to be considered for our submission when we collate the data, please contact us at nzgtasurvey@gmail.com
This survey is very important to support our case to MPI and we appreciate your urgent attention to this by July 10th 2017.
Although most NZ working spaniels and HPRs are docked, it is still vital that we also collate the lack of injury as evidence for our case.

Many thanks
