#2272013-11-12 15:55Please stop this barbaric practice. Vetinary opinion confirms that there is no need for this, even to prevent tail injuries. |

#2282013-11-12 16:11This is the most backward thing I have heard in ages.I'm used to a lot in Animal welfare in Ireland, but these are practises that are punished by LAW in most other european countries..and Ireland wants to re-introduce? NUTS!! |

#2292013-11-12 16:26I have a boxer and her tail was never docked and when she sees me she wags that tail like mad and it makes me smile so I don't understand why anyone would want or feel the need to dock a tail. She expresses her moods thru that tail. |

#2302013-11-12 16:59This is such an awful procedure. How could they possibly allow unqualified people (or qualified for that matter) perform such a horrible operation on newborn puppies? |

#2312013-11-12 17:00This is such an awful procedure. How could they possibly allow unqualified people (or qualified for that matter) perform such a horrible operation on newborn puppies? As a veterinary student myself I find it appalling to think that the minister is considering allowing such acts to be carried out. |

#2342013-11-12 17:14The tail is the end of the spine. There are many nerves in this area. TO dock a tail is unnecessary anyway; to dock a tail without pain relief / anaesthesia is downright cruelty. How can a westernised (! hah!) 'progressed' country bring in a big 'oh OK then' to a cruel act as this? A MAJOR step backward and only goes to show what a primitive country Ireland continues to be. I live on the border and work with a dog rescue - enough is enough. Far too many dogs already are ill / not vaxed / neglected... this is another way for sordid people to mutilate in a back garden job of docking. This should only be carried out by vets with anaesthesia. |

#2372013-11-12 17:54We have to make progress, not going backwards , and our animals hawed to be treated decent and with respect, we can't all play doctor ;(((( |

#2382013-11-12 17:56As an RSPCA Inspector I have seen some terrible injuries in inflicted on dogs by amateurs using rubber bands, string and rusty penknives. There's rarely a justifiable reason to remove a dog's tail. - let them keep their tails AND the ability to communicate with each other. |

#2412013-11-12 18:48Find this completely abhorant and against all that any civilised nation should be prepared to allow. |

#2432013-11-12 19:22Cruel and unnecessary . Horrific to think of lay people inflicting this operation on puppies and typical of Irish law |
Guest |
#2452013-11-12 19:48Irish Law ( if this legislation is passed ) will permit unqualified people to inflict this barbaric practice on puppies with out any pain relief. |
Guest |
#2462013-11-12 20:27A cruel and unnecessary practice with absolutely no scientific or health and welfare benefits for the dog. |

#247 Re: Actual text of the Act2013-11-12 20:46#19: Barry - Actual text of the Act That;s the point ...they are talking about modifying the text/ bringing in qulaifying regualtions to exempt certain breeds from the Act...so they will still be ok to dock |
Guest |
#2482013-11-12 20:55I am appalled that 2013 Act is going to allow people to inflict this cruelty on puppies!! We have enough abuse and cruelty inflicted on animals already without adding this to the list!!! |
