<<What are everyone's opinions on
ear cropping, tail docking, and dew removal,
even for breeds where this is the norm?>> Well, I am glad all of these cosmetic
operations are forbidden in Denmark. A few hunting breeds are except from the
rule, but otherwise showing dogs with docked tails is also forbidden, even if
they come from a country where it is permitted. More and more European countries
are forbidding ear cropping and tail docking, so show judges have to get use to
see the breeds with ears and tails. Maybe one day America will
follow.
