Can I offer you a handful of human foreskins and docked puppy tails in this trying time?

Bro I’m a grown man and didn’t even know about tail docking until probably months ago
Saw this lady in an elevator with a dog, and the dog had no damn tail
Anyway I was like “umm is your dog okay??” And she just gives the most nonchalant, indifferent explanation, she’s like “ohh yeah her tail got docked~” and I’m just thinking wtf is she even implying here. I had to google what that even meant later because it didn’t even occur to me that she actually had that dog’s tail removed on purpose
I assumed that she meant that the tail was diseased somehow and had to be amputated, like maybe docking is just emergency tail amputation- BUT NO AARRGGH I hate this planet

There is a chance that it was not the owner’s choice necessarily, as it could have been a prior owner/breeder. Although in all likelihood it may well have been the owner that decided to dock her dog’s tail.

Idk if this makes it any better but docking started as a practice for dogs doing certain jobs to help avoid injury.
Basically tail injuries were common and a clean removal was overall actually better. Then it slowly became something done for no purpose other than cosmetic which is disgusted. Honestly we shouldn’t even have working dogs anymore either, but at least its origins made sense at the time

16 hoursIf you cut off your dogs tail or circumcise your child, than I don’t like you.

Had a neighbor I would wave at occasionally, big sloppy white guy, one day I drove past and he had a pit puppy with bandaged ears and tail running around in the front yard.
Had to take a different road out of the neighborhood the rest of the time I lived there to avoid violence.
