What if the RCVS working party under Walter Beswick announce that working dogs will become exempt from the restrictions?
The working party has now put its recommendations to the RCVS Council. No relaxation in the current guidelines have been recommended, and the suggested rewording of the guidelines for docking are even more confusing for veterinary surgeons to comprehend and abide by. The RCVS has made its intention very clear; it wants the total abolition of docking. So too, does the RSPCA and the Council of Europe. Those opposed to docking are not unknown to mislead others into accepting a compromise, then to manipulate it to their own advantage. The Council FOR Docked Breeds, the predecessor of the current organisation when faced with a compromise offer from the Home Office and the RCVS, accepted that lay docking would be banned on the understanding that docking by veterinary surgeons would continue. Look what happened to that compromise! It would appear that nothing will stop the RCVS, the RSPCA and the Council of Europe being united in their attempt to persuade our government to ban the practice ou
