No but a puppy's tail gets docked! My dog still chews on his tail stump when he gets nervous and has always been protective of it. Don't fool with his tail!
Poor puppies. I saw a program where they cutting dogs vocal cords to stop them barking loudly. That's horrible too.
Cutting the vocal chords is illegal in the UK and as from April next year nobody will be alllowed to dock tails either hurrah!!!!
