When I found out about this, I was actually in a state of shock. How can a state go so massively BACKWARD in welfare in this day and age? This can NEVER end well. I have seen what people already do to their animals, and when that goes wrong they dump them and leave them to fend for themselves or for a rescue to find. This is ridiculous, I seriously suggest at the very least they go back to requiring a vet to do the procedures. The people that pass and create these policies are meant to be educated, aware individuals. However, when things like this are passed, it makes it very clear that this may not be the case.

This is absolutely DISGUSTING! These poor pups feel pain like every other animal (which fyi includes humans!). If for some reason this procedure needs to be done, it should be carried out by vets. Trained professionals using the proper tools and medicines to keep the dog healthy!

This is an unnecessary practice. Why would they allow people with no background in veterinary medicine to do this? Horrific.

This is a barbaric practice of no benefit to any dog. Cant believe that any animal could be at risk of pure butchery at the hands of persons untrained or otherwise due to this Bill. Unbelievable that such a practice should ever be considered.

I cannot believe what I am reading. Are we going back in time? At the moment people are still docking the tails of puppies and dogs without any anaesthetic and causing horrific pain, sometimes even death when infections set in, and you want to make this legal. If you look through the ages you will see that nationalities who are cruel to animals inevitably are cruel to humans. They lose empathy. I think that this country is heading in the wrong direction. If you can be cruel to an animal, you can be cruel to anyone and anything, it hardens you. We should be teaching our children that cruelty of any kind is wrong. This was stopped for a reason, that reason has not changed. It's always the same. Ban Tail docking completely, it is totally unnecessary.
