I wish to have a dog with a tail as I have no plans to show or breed.  The history of docking is well known and my reasons for wanting one with a tail is simple!  I have seen 2 OES with tails and they look wonderful........ but also a little strange too, as you get so use to breeds having no tails!  I also dont want to compare a new OES with my previous dog and just feel one with a tail would be different.  However trying to find a breeder who  would allow this is proving very difficult  any helpful advice would be appreciated.

Many thanks

Hi, can't help on the breeder side but had to say I had an OES many years ago and he was undocked and as i was used to his tail i used to think the docked ones looked odd.But them tails are a deadly weapon especially when he came back from his yearly shave,lol.I got him near Blackpool if that is any help to you.
