New Tail Docking Law ??
Has anybody heard if the tail docking law is to be changed to a total ban, a friend in the UK has heard this on the grapevine and wonders if it is true.I'm not in a docked tail breed so said I would ask around

Hi Becky, think you can show if legally docked, but not at shows where the public pay entry, eg crufts, skc and the like,
dont quote me on that though, they seem to move the goal post every time you think you know whats happening its all change, thats the gov though, also is it not banned in england then?
