My pup has erect ears and a perfectly docked little tail - but he's a little character and has both his tail and ears going in different directions and moving all over the place all the time.
When my pup is sitting around - his ears are straight up and he looks like a little coyote - but when he runs to meet people or play -they lay back a lot like a little bunny (probably because he is such a friendly, submissive little guy). And his tail is up and down and wagging and all over the place all the time.
So - I would say that a tail shouldn't be erect or "up" all the time.
