Andrea 2 Posted February 1, 2008 Report Share Posted February 1, 2008 Sorry to hear about this, although I think we will be hearing more and more of it. Dont suppose you have a pic of it bledding do you, that I could show the "do gooders" that think the docking ban was a good idea? the "do gooders" don't give a damn about the dogs IMPO, they just want to create more problems and make it harder for us to work our dogs.

Dawn B 212 Posted February 1, 2008 Report Share Posted February 1, 2008 Of course they do, its their speciality! Those that dont see the dogs working and witness the problems they may come across, are always the ones that KNOW whats best! Quote Link to post

Rhyannon 0 Posted February 6, 2008 Report Share Posted February 6, 2008 One of my springers had her tail amputated last easter, she had come to me as a rehome so I had not been too bothered about her having a tail as she was never going to be used to work ... She started damaging mildly for about 6 months then one day took her to the beach and she ruined it in the dunes!! Luckily for me she was off to be speyed a few days after that incident so they did her tail at the same time. Took a month of crate rest and lead walks before it was all healed. Quote Link to post
