In the uk its illegal for a breeder to dock tails it can only be done legally by registered vets and not all vets will do it! My Pippa is docked but not correctly it is short but has a extra piece that sits at a right angle on the end!! I personally like the look of a docked tail but if i had puppies i wouldnt do it! I see it as similar to cutting your thumb off when you were born!
