		<description>no one ever said docking doesn&#039;t hurt get a life!
i have had plenty of surgeries, after the first week, it gets better, as well as for the dogs and the docking.
good grief, i am sick of all the liberals and government interferenes in our lives,
also the  bleeding hearts.</description>

		<description>jen perhaps you should breed little pooches instead, then your finest crockery wont be whipped off the table!

rspca studies have shown that a pup will shreik up to 42 times after having a big part of its spine lopped off!
dogs can develop bowel and bladder missfunctions due to muscle problems. and also hernias.
puppies nerves ARE formed at 4 days old( you should hear my pups when thier mum sits on them!). of course they are as pain is for the pups own protection.
it seems really strange to me considering the care and attention i give my pups to avoid them suffering any pain that a supposed responsible breeder would feel it morally right to remove a portion of thier animals babies spines. 
its giving me chills just thinking about it.
if people are going off rotties because of thier tails, they are obviously just after a dog that looks intimidating. i own american bulldogs. you dont need to cut bits off them to improve thier look. evolution tends to know better but i suppose some cant help but play god.</description>

		<description>ok docking the ears I think needs to be looked at before the tails! Docking ears is useless and unnessary! At least docking tails there&#039;s a good result!! I raise/breed Rottweilers and yes I dock tails and remove dew claws (useless things(dews)). I do feel bad for the pups when I have it done but the claws are useless and can cause more problems tearing them off and missed during clippings will grow into their feet. Tails I hate those big long whips! Not so bad if they are curly tails but still they hurt! And they knock things over and the dogs gets in trouble for it, they can&#039;t control those whips! I will still dock my pups tails (I might have a litter on the way &amp; will be docked). Besides those little nubs are so cute when they are going a mile a minute you can&#039;t even hardly see it, it&#039;s moving so fast. I think removeing due claws is less painful than tails! The pups scream more about their tails then their toes.</description>
