WELCOME TO THE SOCIETY FOR THE PROMOTION OF UNDOCKED DOGS
We're at Crufts 2001
Hall 5 stand 170
Fully Tailed Working Welsh Springer Spaniel
The society was founded in England in September 1998 to continue the work of Tail Waggers Against Docking, started by Beverly Cuddy of Dogs Today magazine. Many of our members are exhibitors some of whom have sccessfully qualified for Crufts 2000 & 2001 with their tailed dogs. We are looking to give those of you who are interested in undocked dogs a place to come and see tailed examples of your breeds of choice, put you in touch with breeders and exhibitors/pet owners who enjoy their dogs, Tails and all.
For those of you who feel strongly about this issue please Click to sign our online petition!!!
MAY I HAVE MY TAIL BACK PLEASE?
by Carol Davies
May I have my tail back please I didn't mean to scream
but I THOUGHT YOU LOVED ME!!
That tail was mine part of my natural beauty,
I'm hurting, I'm bleeding but I will forgive you
Because it's not my place to question the attack
But please when you have the time may
I HAVE IT BACK!!
NATURAL DOGS PLEASE!!
by Ina Harrington 23/12/99
I carry a Stop Docking Sticker around with me on the back of my car so that all can see!
I know I won't impress the die hard dockers who wouldn't appreciate my natural Cockers!
I appeal to those who've never given it a thought, should we accept docking as we've been taught?
Is there justification in practicing this trade?
Can we really improve on what God has made?
To take a helpless pup and sever it's tail to me is barbaric and beyond the pale.
Because it's gone on so long is no excuse, just another example of human abuse!
When it began in the 1st Century AD at least they believed it kept dogs rabies free!
That original misconception is now dead and gone so it's long past time to leave DOGS TAILS ON!
I doubt most have thought it through, but just carry on because others do!
That's the easier option but be true to yourself, if you're convinced its wrong don't sit on the shelf!
In this crucial issue don't let fashion dictate stand up and be counted it's never too late!!!
