would you ever dock a dogs tail?

I have no issues with a vet doing the docking. I dissagree with cropping however. But I'm all for male human babies having thier foreskin cut off.

I eventually (in the far-off future) will have a Doberman-and yes, it's tail will be docked. Skye (my pointer mix) has a long thin tail and is constantly opening the end of it. It hurts us too, lol!

I have docked a puppies tail, myself, under the supervision of a vet and it honestly wasn't a big deal.

I would never crop ears.
