O man! a typo XD
I agree if they are goin to dock is better to do at very few days of birth.
You see like 11 years ago we got a Boxer puppy, he was like 4-5 months old, He had a tail cut like the show dogs but when my bro take him to the vetenarian the vet insisted that the tail was too long and my bro came to the house wit the dog and his "new" more doked tail.
(My bro didn't knew about not croping a tail at that age)
and sadly the dog suffered, he stared to bite his tail to the point of his blood stared to came fron it, and it was many
we saw ponds of blood anywhere in the floor, it was horrible to see that.
andThe healing was very slow.
That's the main reason I'm not 100% pro docking and ear cropping.
Sadly too 3 years later he got stolen >->
