Hi Lisa,
No, you cannot get the tail docked by a vet. It has to be done 3-5 days after birth. If you want the standard look (no tail), you will have to buy from a different litter. It can be tricky going by how the parents act. I know my Tiah is great....however, when people come, she gets sooooo excited. However, she is normally calm. I'm sure some can be just the opposite....calm, but very nervous around strangers. Look for the signs of a healthy pup that were mentioned. I picked mine out at a couple weeks old, so he wasn't showing ANY personality. I wish you the best. Again, if you want a pup with a docked tail, take your time and look around a little more. |
