I was just saying it would be better to go and get it done in ireland rather that mess around trying to get proof etc etc to dock the tails.

So you think it is 'better' to take your pregnant bitch on a long journey over to a strange place thus causing her stress at the the time of her life that should be kept as stress-free for her as possible? Highly unfair on the bitch and extremely pointless imho. She might be happy but i'm sure she'd be equally as happy with her tail. Dogs who are permenantly kenneled can have very badly damaged tails (especially thinner-tailed breeds like Weims, Staffords and Danes) which may result in the tail needing to be docked, but if your pups are bred for pets, I do not see any point in docking their tails. It's very rare that a dog will damage it's tail in an ordinary, home environment.
