hi all ,my first post so hope your all good. Am about to get an adorable rough coated part parson jack Russell puppy and just wondered on your opinions on tail docking,the little fella I’m getting is not docked and it’s not something I’m bothered about personally so just wondered about it,any other advice on having a new JRT welcome,thanks.
Hi Johnny, welcome to the forum. I'm sure your Parson puppy will keep you well occupied when he arrives. Don't forget to post some puppy pictures when you have them. Tail docking has been banned in the UK since 2006. Exceptions are permitted for genuine working Gundog breeders but, to the best of my knowledge, not for working Terriers.
I agree with Carole, really looking forward to seeing some pictures It took me a while to work out how to put them on a ‘post’ Keep the tail, I get so much joy seeing it wag when he is happy to see me !
