Cheers I have now read through these posts and I do understand that gundogs work types are different. Apologies.

I have also seen posts that state docking isn't painful, well I beg to differ the pups were screaming and it was done at the vets. People obviously have had different experiences.

I still think docking is wrong and it really doesn't matter what our personal opinions are on this, it sounds as though it has been banned.

Not sure whether the ban includes actual working dogs. I have seen posts where they can't be shown unless its a non-entrance fee event.
