No.

Is there one coming in next year? Are they going for the working dogs being exempt?
Thanks

The latest news I can find on the CDB site for Scotland is here: http://www.cdb.org/news32.htm
As far as I can see, there is no exemption at the moment or plans for an exemption for working dogs, and it's looking like a total ban. The link above says that a consultation period ended on 5th Jan, so I guess it depends on what happened as a result of that consultation and if enough pro-docking people wrote in.

At the moment there is an outright ban which will come into effect on 6 April 2007.
But watch this space

LOL, not trying to be the naysayer but - even if you (and Wales!) get an exemption, you're then in the same pickle as the rest of us, which is outlined in this thread!!: http://workinghprs.myfastforum.org/about836.html
