one of my favorite dogs are old English sheep dogs. partly because I own one, and his name is Waldo. It is a large breed of dog that Emerged in England. they grow big shaggy coats and only shed If brushed. The nickname bobtail came from how most of the dogs had there tail docked.
Dear Ed, I love the topic of your blog, but could you elaborate on what specifically a docked tail is? Sincerely Lars.
