    IV. The Modern Controversy On July 9, 1999, the American Veterinary Medical Association released the following: Ear cropping and tail docking in dogs for cosmetic purposes are not medically indicated nor of benefit to the patient. These procedures can cause pain and distress, and as with all surgical procedures, are accompanied by inherent risks of anesthesia, blood loss, and infection. Therefore, veterinarians should counsel dog owners about these matters before agreeing to perform these surgeries.19 http://www.animallaw.info/articles/dduscroppingdocking.htm#II
