Why would you not get one just because it has a docked tail? It is because you're against it and don't want to support it?

A responsible breeder can't hold back a puppy just for one person because at that age they can't tell anything about who will be a show or pet puppy. So all the tails must be docked.

If you wanted a Dobe without a docked tail you will need to look for a breeder overseas. If it is because you aren't supporting docking, why don't you just get a rescue? That way you know your money is for a good cause and you're saving a life
