In the version of this story that ran locally, the lawyer for the breed group
said labeling tail docking as cruel was as silly as saying declawing cats is
cruel.

I guess she doesn't realize that declawing *is* cruel. I hope that this man
wins his case because it may open the door to similar rulings about whether
declawing falls under state animal cruelty laws.
