Working dogs' tails

The ban on the practice of allowing a working dog's tail to be docked as a pup throws up matters that must be addressed. I assume the tax payer will cover the vet's fees for the treatment of injured dogs owned by the government. If so, it is only fair that tax payers should be responsible for paying the vet's fees for treating the tail injuries of working dogs owned by individual tax payers and organisations.
