Cleanspade 3,322 Posted January 4, 2012 Report Share Posted January 4, 2012 the breeder is to blame i cant see any good dogging man leaving a terrier with a long tail'.. well at least not were im from hope you get it sorted good luck.. a good working dog man would know that the tail aint going to make a sods difference to the dogs working ability. ive often wondered why terrierfolk that feel strongly against the show scene. and money market dont stop docking. as it would help them avoid show folk and would reduce the value of the pup sensable work oriented folk will value good workers. with or without tails.. or will they . . 2 Quote Link to post

alan626 305 Posted January 5, 2012 Report Share Posted January 5, 2012 tell the dog to bite the pillow while u chop his tail of Quote Link to post
FightTheBan 1,147 Posted January 5, 2012 Report Share Posted January 5, 2012 Well if you were going to do it...its far too late now as you have aired it on here. So any sniff of bother and you will be in the shit for it. It wont affect the dogs working ability in any way so leave it be. FTB Quote Link to post
marshman 7,757 Posted January 5, 2012 Report Share Posted January 5, 2012 I was gifted a bitch pup that was to old to be docked , so I just left her with a long tail. It's never affected her working ability at all ! In saying that I do prefer my dogs to be docked . Quote Link to post

Marvin 193 Posted January 6, 2012 Report Share Posted January 6, 2012 Ethical dilemma time dude, put your dog down a hole to possibly scrap with a furry critter and maybe get half his mush chewed off and be a good sport, or cut its tail off in the name of aesthetics and be a c@nt. A hard one to choose really damned if you do damned if you dont Good Luck Dude Quote Link to post
matthews 88 77 Posted January 6, 2012 Report Share Posted January 6, 2012 a lad round this way got his 6-7 month old russel done, surley that wasnt off a vet thats way to old the tail bone would be just abot solid at that age Quote Link to post
