New Zealand Parliament wants to stop Tail Docking

New Zealand CDB formed

The New Zealand Parliament has introduced a Bill to stop all tail docking of dogs.

Barry Uren, the President of the Northern Weimaraner Club and President of the Waitemata Gundog Club appeared on a TV current affairs program in October 1997 in support of docking and is instrumental in forming the New Zealand Council of Docked Breeds.

Not surprisingly, it appears that this Bill has the full support of the SPCA and the NZ Veterinary Association.

A dog show in Auckland 18th October produced 550 signatures on a petition and 160 new members for the NZCDB. Eleven clubs have also donated and signed up in support.
