  9. An Ivana appreciation, and do not take it amiss , the BoBtail generally born with tail, not without it, at a time amputo you for two reasons, the first a canon or payment that is avoided(taxes) and the second who before the fight with any predatory Wolf, avoid being eganchados and torn apart by the anus.

    • Not always. Some are born without it. There are so many generations by cutting the tail that is transmitted genetically (I guess this is why) and are born without it.

      Reply
      • That makes no sense…having a part of your body cut off doesn't change your genes. If it is true that some are born without a tail, it sure is not because they are cut, that has no scientific basis

  10. It is a very good contribution, Fran, especially if it comes from a person that is dedicated to the race, so I'll take it into account for editing. We are editing all entries page… Because we have seen in several errors, Although not fat…, errors of ignorance.

    So any contribution is well received.! Now I have to go, but then I will edit the piece speaks of the tail, here, and I will take into account, in the edition of the race entry.

    Thanks a lot, and good afternoon!
