Thanks for all the replies.
The response I got from the breeders was less than favourable. Along the lines of we're not docking as it will ruin the years and years of hard work of breeding championship winners etc etc. I've emailed back to ask if we could choose one and have it docked at the early stage, but no response.
Tbh, having a spinone in the house with an undocked tail would also be a liability as much as it would be in the field. They are exceptionally waggy dogs!
Will see what they say.
Thanks for the link, but i've already contacted everyone on the list! Like I said, litters are really hard to come by 
Fingers crossed!
