Cutting the dog's tail off one inch at a timeTypically used as a warning, as in never cut the dog's tail off one inch at a time. It would be torture to a real dog, and eventually the critter is likely to retaliate. The term is often used to warn against administering adverse or traumatic change a little bit at a time. Such prolonged "treatment" or agony can have negative consequences. Obviously this method should be contrasted with doling out too much change at once. (See also: shovel instead of a spoon.)
