Hi,
it seems to me that cropping/docking dogs is a little like de-clawing with cats. Some will say its necessary- while others will call it unnecessary
I would say that it is a fact that the actual docking/cropping procedure causes pain when done without anaesthetizing the dog- and that the dog will also experience pain while healing. Simply because dogs are mammals and as such can feel pain.
