This is one of the most shocking barbaric acts of cruelty on our poor dogs.. if dogs were meant to have short tails... they would be born with them. This has to stop now!!!!!

I could never understand as a child why dogs tails were docked and I still can't understand it today. Completely unnecessary cruelty. How would some of the humans like it if they got their "tails" docked.

I nearly threw up when I saw this. I cannot believe this would be tolerated let alone passed as legal! This is a very barbaric and unnecessary cruelty act towards dogs. WHY is the question??? Why put an animal through torture when it is absolutely unnecessary! Animals and humans both have pain thresholds. I am sure a similar act would not be tolerated if it was towards a human. Why are we disrespecting animals this way??  In IRELAND above all places. Are we turning into the middle east??!! What is going on? Who is responsible for even suggesting this?  He should be given a taste of his own medicine to see how much pain he can endure!!! Remove his fingers see how he would like that. Craziest thing I've ever heard. I'm not even sure this petition is real or not, it's so beyond normality!!!

If this petition is passed its going to prove that the Irish Government are more moronic and naive than people could have imagined. We need to be moving forward with animal rights not turning back!

If vets are banned from performing this barbaric procedure why are members of the public allowed to do it? Absolutely cruel - imagine having your arm or foot amputated for no reason and without anaesthetic!

Tail docking should only be done by a qualified vet and then preferably for medical reasons only not for fashion

What on earth possible justification could there be for allowing this cruel practice to continue? Ban it now.

Please keep to original Act where tail docking will be banned for anything other than a medical necessity.

I have seen this practice had been used in my neighborhood. Puppies had wrapped a hair band around their tails. I can't imagine how painful it was for those pupps. Those who love the dogs will love them with their tails. They have been born like that so why do we want change them?

Dogs are born with tails and ears for a reason. If you do not like the way a dog looks, do not get a dog.
