    Are you trying to say that you do not agree with people getting a dog just for show and not caring about it otherwise? I, myself, see nothing wrong with getting a dog for show, just as long as it is loved and taken care of just as much as a dog that's not for show.

    As for tail-docking, I'm not sure what my answer would be. I mean, I love the look of the Doberman and Boxer with a docked tail (although I love the look of them with a full-lengthed tail as well). I guess I'd just have to make that decision if the time ever came.

    As long as it is done at a proper age and at a vet's office I am fine with it. I voted No, because you asked would you ever do it. I wouldn't, but my future breed's tails are docked (poodle). I will never breed either, so I would never be in this situation.
    Thanks so much Ashley for the siggy!
