Some dog breeds need to be docked in order for them to reach the standard for their breed, such as Rotts. While some people are for the idea, others feel that the practice is unnecessary. Personally, I prefer to dock my puppies when they are 2-3 days old, before their nervous system is fully developed. I normally use rubber rings, and so far the results have been good. What do you think? Is it wise to continue with the practice or should it be avoided at all costs?
