I agree. Although, there are vets that have docked tails on older dogs. But, it's performed with a laser, with no damage to vertebrae.
Also, what hasn't been mentioned here is that pups shouldn't have their tails/dew claws removed unless the pup is close to 7 ounces. This has to do with their ability to adequantely maintain their blood sugar levels.
