threbb 0 Posted October 2, 2008 Report Share Posted October 2, 2008 to do this at this age without anethestic is barbaric. How do you know it was done without anesthetic They dont know.But they probably dont care.They just jump on the band wagon because they think it sounds good.If i didnt know it was a hunting forum id think it was the anti brigade.Especially using the antis favourite word BARBARIC.

socks 32,253 Posted October 2, 2008 Report Share Posted October 2, 2008 to do this at this age without anethestic is barbaric. How do you know it was done without anesthetic They dont know.But they probably dont care.They just jump on the band wagon because they think it sounds good.If i didnt know it was a hunting forum id think it was the anti brigade.Especially using the antis favourite word BARBARIC. pups need to be docked by a vet with all the relevant paper work completed. I dont know of many vets working out of gypsy sites. I dont think anyone is being anti hunting just anti suffering. People acting like that bloke are more damaging to the cause than the anti brigade. I have lurchers so I cant comment on the pros and cons of docking some working dogs. i dont see any anti undertones in any of these threads just good dog people that are concerned with the welfare of ALL dogs ..... ''How do you know it was done without anesthetic'' ???? it was done on a fecking filthy gypsy site .... i doubt they even used a clean sharp knife to do the job .... the poor fecking mut will have just his tail chopped off with a blunt filthy axe and would have and will still be in a lot of pain and will be lucky if he dont get a seriouse infection leading to septicemia ..........

You know what if brains were dynamite you wouldnt have enough to blow your hat off...It is barbaric to dock a dog at this age without anesthetic .I have had a dog docked due to tail damage at 6 month,and i hasten to add it was by a vet.The dog was done under a general and administered morphine for a couple of days and then metacam the dog did not get over it for 3 weeks. It was not a nice sight to see her deal with the pain . It has been law in England to have a pup legally docked by a vet and have the docking certificate and pup chipped for near two years.The pups are usually done at three days by me vet who is a shooting man. As for being an ANTI jumping on the band wagon I shoot and pick up and field trial me dogs but I do everything in my power to follow all legalisation concerning me pups .So maybe you should keep your mouth shut cos ignorance is no excuse ,calling people who care for the welfare of the dog an Anti are just a little bit savvy than you Yours in Sport Steve Quote Link to post Share on other sites

smudgersmith 2 Posted October 3, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 3, 2008 My ex mate had a real good going over yesterday by a few lads down here. The knackers who did it kept well out of the way due to the boys being a bit on the handy side. The dog was taken to the blue cross as it as not stopped bleeding. Got no pity for my ex pal, have more for the dog. Bloke is a complete twat, who took too much notice of "terrier" men from this manor who are full of shit. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
