Cropped and docked dogs
Cropped dogs born in Sweden or in another country where cropping is banned may not be exhibited. The exhibition ban also includes cropped dogs which are the offspring of a dam in Danish, Finnish, Norwegian or Swedish ownership. Docked dogs may only be exhibited on condition that they meet one or more of the following criteria:
- the dog was born in a country other than Sweden or Norway, is not the offspring of a dam in Swedish or Norwegian ownership at the time the docking was carried out, docking was permitted in the dog's country of birth.
- the dog was born in Sweden on or after 1 January 1993 and the docking was carried out for medical purposes to remedy an injury suffered after birth, and an original record of this in the form of a veterinary certificate can be produced both at the event and at a later date.
Docked Dobermanns or Rottweilers born on or after 1 January 1997 in a country where a docking ban is in force may not be shown irrespective of the reason for the docking.
