ChrisH, weren't we just talking about this not too long ago?
Yes, we were Anna. The same people I wrote about then, Anti Docking Allience (sp?), sent me the link. I think the Rottie in those pics looks ok too, but like you I can`t imagine Angus with a tail either! I do think it is a lot to do with how we are used to seeing them. I got my Bob as a tiny pup and his breeder was quite happy to leave his tail intact so I am used to him like that and as most Springers are docked I am used to seeing them that way, but somehow, my Bob wouldn`t be Bob without his having that waggy tail. LOL.

mmm, this may sound stupid..... but why do people cut some dog's tail?
It is not a stupid thing to ask, quite the reverse in fact, lots of people ask that. This is a link that tries to answer. Be aware though, as the name suggests we are a mite predudiced! (sp?) The Anti-docking Alliance Web site
And, if you are interested, this is the link to the discussion we had before.
