the tail is cut right at the brown spot on the bottom or just a hair longer toward the end. that is the proper way and I have docked many tails at six days old for one reason or another and it wasn't any different than docking the ones at four days old. but A yorkie with a full tail is cute and they are even starting to show them that way now. Actually, I clamp the tail right at the brown spot and then cut on the side toward the end.
