• You may have heard about Versace, our young 3 month old puppy who was found with a severely damaged tail.  Before being found wandering on the streets of Hamilton, his tail had been cruelly and deliberately docked by an amateur with a blunt instrument, resulting in severe pain, blood loss and infection.  You can read the full article online courtesy of The Waikato Times and stuff.co.nz at  Botched tail docking leaves pup fighting for life.  To properly heal, Versace needs surgery and skin grafts costing over $800.
