That may require civil servants sniffing lamp posts and dogs arses after an intensive language course. I'm fully in favour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotThePars Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 I vividly remember watching one of the Air Bud films when I was a wee guy and the baddie lured Air Bud away with tasty meat hidden away on his person. Something to consider before travelling down this path IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrewDon Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 Just remember when the police were shooting innocent dogs in public. I, for one, am delighted we have moved on from those dark days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dirty dingus Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 I owned a rottweiler for 12 years that had it's tail docked before we got it, never had to take it for counselling, was the greatest dug in the world and man's best friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ludo*1 Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 Is there really an argument being made that dogs might be happier without their tail or at least it being shorter?! Ffs. Maybe we should start 'shortening' babies fingers because they 'get in the way'.It's fucking barbaric and it's potentially a vote killer, it'll certainly make me think twice about voting for them again.

jmothecat Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 Tbf if I had a tail I'd want it removed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crùbag Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 SNP have fckd this one up. Issue passed me for a while by but I'd go with this assessment of it: http://thenational.scot/politics/15366009.Mark_Ruskell__Tail_docking_is_a_dangerous__anti_science_step_for_the_Scottish_Government_to_take/ Seems like a sop to the landowning class so their 'sport' can continue as unhindered as possible.

Mine confirmed that he thought this treatment was pretty rough. He also told me the opposite of smooth, and the name of the Thistle goalie in the 1971 League Cup win.

DeeTillEhDeh Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 Some people are forgetting the main reason why they have to be docked - it's how they have been bred (or rather inbred). The number of pedigree dogs that have inherent weaknesses in their bodies is down to man and man alone.If we hadn't bred different pedigrees of dog we wouldn't be having this discussion.

Not really - but thanks for providing an example of the sort of straw man arguments that people who know little about this policy are using to justify their hysterical and idiotic response.
