I don't mind the lack of tail in breeds born that way, like Zoee, or Pembroke Corgis, etc. But I once met an Airdale whose tail, though docked, was not done correctly, and he was full grown and the bone was sticking out of the end of his tail so it had to be bandaged again, poor thing! He was a few inches taller than Standard at the shoulders, and yes, that tail could have been lethal, but so was Gracie the Great Dane's tail, we just kept breakables off low surfaces!
