I love seeing the traditionally docked breeds with tails - they look so much better. I hate needless docking - it is for the owners vanity not for the good of the dogs. I agree with docking working dogs, even if it means a few from the litter still end up in pet homes - as is likely to happen but is much more preferable to the damage that can be inflicted on a tail.

It is a mutilation for cosmetic reasons and those who like them will get used to them with their tails eventually. It's like ear cropping which looks so unnatural and ugly - anyone living in a country that allows it, will think uncropped ears look strange.
