Where can we compete..

with our Bracilian & our American miniature?
Is there any easy way to find out witch country in Europe we can show our cropped & docked dogs?

Unfortunately you have to find out country by country since even if there is a ban on cropping there might not be a ban on docking and to add confusion the dates of the ban is not the same (eg in france, ban on cropped dog from Aug 2008 but nothing wrong with docking! when most other countries in europe ban docking as well ...) Some countries even allow dock & cropped at shows (even if banned in their countries !) as long as it was allowed in the country of origin of the dog...

Totally confused ? so are we ! lol!

In Slovenia and Spain and Eastern Europe there are problems, the prohibition is Croazia since 01/2008 but only to Croatian farmers. Greetings Andrea

You can still show a docked dog in the UK so long as it was legally docked in the country of origen - you just can't show it at the shows where the public pay an entrance fee eg Crufts but other champ shows are mostly OK to still show at.

Cropped dogs are not allowed at any KC event.
