Default Tail docking

Since these puppies aren't going to be shown, I feel tail docking is kind of pointless, however I know it is breed standard. AKC says medium length, carried slightly higher than the line of the back.

Allie and Noah both have very little tail, maybe an inch.
Westley's is slightly longer.

My question is how long do you leave your puppies 'nub' when docking? We are going to the vet Monday to have this and dew claw removal done, and will need to be able to tell the vet what I want specifically. Of course google brought up a million things, and I trust the breeders here more than anything.

Thanks in advance.
