All the problems that there are in the world and we are now back trying to fight another proposed docking ban!
Do we as responsible breeders and show people have any rights in our hobby anymore?
IF DOCKING WAS CRUEL RESPONSIBLE BREEDERS WOULD NOT DO IT!
If the authorities feel that it is cruel why allow other breeds to be done!
Authorities need to look at New Zealands docking law AS ONCE BANNED and now REVOKED allowing for docking to take place.

Come on DARD, see sense and revoke these proposals. Start supporting true responsible breeders and show people of the dog world!
THE ONES THAT TRULY DO CARE ABOUT THE WELFARE OT THEIR DOGS.
DOCKING IS NOT FOR COSMETIC PURPOSES BUT FOR PREVENTION.
How many legaly docked dogs do you see with tail injury compared to undocked dogs?
As for banning docked dogs been shown what has SHOWING got to do with the ANIMAL WELFARE ACT?
