Have to admit they make more noise when having dew claws removed, they are docked so early that it is not a bone it is gristle.

Re: Ear Cropping?
Totally agree with you Tashi - the damage caused to tails in working dogs is terrible and very painful that in the end they have them amputated later on !!! Pain that could have been prevented!

totally agree with you on the working dogs being docked, it does cause alot of damage to the tail if they get caught up in fencing.

someone i went to college with went hunting with her dogs and one of them had to have her tail amputated because she got caught in a fence. cost a fortune too in vet bills!
