Can anyone confirm if the BIS winner was actually docked?
Thanks

nice one :D
I have wanted to ask that since a couple of people have told me it was not docked!
I have only seen a photo and it looks to have a very short tail if it is of full length.

I was ring side and i would say yes it was docked.
I have poodles and they are being docked slightly longer than before.An undocked poodle tends to have a tail that will curl over his/her back.

The OFFICIAL answer from The British KENNEL CLUB is YES he most definately was NOT DOCKED. If he IS docked then surely he must be disqualified as the KC say his country of origin has banned docking.
The BIS show winner has his own website. the addy is http://home.sol.no/snownice/Topscore%20Contradiction.htm Have a look at it it shows lots of undocked poodles along with 'Contradiction', make your own mind up
Well, if he is not docked then he has an awfully short tail!!
Have just read this weeks Dog World (well some of it anyway) and there are three photos of Standard Poodles in it - all looking remarkably similar to Crufts winner - anyone else think this?
