Lola has about the longest tail I have ever seen on a small dog, she is mixed with Pom so that is why her tail was not docked (thankfully) It is a good thing that when walking and playing she carries it high up and and cascades over her back. If it stuck straight out it could easily get caught in a closing door or be stepped on. After it started measuring longer than her body I started trimming it since she was starting to hang on the ground even when she carried it high up. It's hard to get a picture of how she carries it. Having four purbreds yorkies with docked tails I was also taken aback when I found out her's was not, but now if I could help it I would not have a yorkie with a docked tail. there are some more photos of her on my profile and I think some of them show her tail. .
I can't wait to see pics of your new puppy, congrats and welcome to Yorkie Talk
