If their has been any changes in her routine maybe she is just adjusting to everything new. She is still a puppy , so I hope it is not a medical issue. You may want to follow up with a eray just to make sure. My Suzi tail is not docked, but it is naturally short, she will wag her tail even when looking comfortably relaxed, she sees my son and her tail will go a mile a minute. she also still spins in circles when super happy, and will lick you to death. She is 4 yrs old now and has so much energy, she is a domintae little dog too, that is the terrier side in her. :animal36 |

She's really affectionate and is always at my side or sitting in my lap. I know she is happy by her little happy dance... it's just the tail that throws me for a loop. She can move it up and down, but doesn't do the side to side wag. Strange. |

Many of the, shall we say "unprofessional" breeders that dock tails do it way too short. It is very dangerous because if they cut it too short the nerves of the spine can be affected. I suppose an inexperienced vet could do this as well. If you look at the tail of a show Yorkie or a Yorkie bred by a show breeder they have a good sized docked tail that is quite noticeable....even with long hair. |
My Maggie's is too short. She wags it, but not when she is just walking around Ina god old like some dogs do. She might be trying but it doesn't show! She wags it when good things are about to happen but not just a casual lazy wag. Could be thismpupsmismjust to short. I really don't remember if Maggie always did it. She turned 2 in April. I have to go,let her out of her cage now. I'm sure she is awake in there but since she hasn't heard anybody she will just chill in there. The little slug with the big bladder! |
Tibbe was 9 mos. old when I got him, has a very short tail, is almost 5 years now, & the only time I see his stub of a tail wag is when he is play-biting me or when he is shaking/biting one of his squeaky furry toy critters. He never wags his tail when greeting - he "dog laughs" then, jumps up & down, kisses like mad - but no tail wagging. |

My Hailee had her tail docked WAY too short...it is barely 1 inch long....I never see it wag because as it wags side to side, there is so little of it to go to the side, you can not see it go! Normally, you dock where the tan meets the black under the tail...or where the tail on a pup noticeable goes from thicker to thinner....whoever docked Hailees tail almost took the whole thing off! |
I was trying to find a picture that shows her tail length but couldn't find a good one. I measured it and her tail is 1.5" and her whole back from neck base to tail base is 9". She is 4 lbs, not sure if that clears up how it is size-wise but if I come across a pic of her tail or if she will pick it up so I can get a good pic, I will post it. |
