when I had my litter the vet took the pups out of the room so mom couldn't hear them cry and become stressed.I must say it worked he brought them back they were not crying and mom was happy.
Also I chose to keep my pups tail longer because that is what I liked and any potential buyers knew that up front.it is your choice alone unless you are showing.heck I didn't like that the breeder or vet docked the dad's tail to short so he has none.to each his own
