what should I do?

Hey everyone....

So after visiting the Phoenix,AZ pet expo, I filled out an app to become a proud owner of a corgi from the cactus corgi rescue...if everything goes as planned and she is officially part of the family, my one question is, should I worry about cropping her tail, or let it go? She has a really long tail, which doesn't bother me, but everyone I've talked to says crop it, although since she's already 2 yrs old, I don't wanna put her through that if I don't have to...any opinions?

You must be so excited. I know that I'm definitely excited and can't wait to see photos. She's a lucky girl. Sounds like she's going to a very loving owner.

Leave it . There are some who choose not to have them docked.

Yes, keep the tail! Its my personal opinion that cropping is cruel since it is usually done for aesthetic reasons only, and it has no medical value whatsoever. I wish my dog still had her tail. I would not have cropped it if it were my choice. The breeder cropped it shortly after she was born :( Good luck with your new family member!
