Cucco 1,907 Posted July 28, 2014 (edited) I know why they would do it for one to be used as a cow herder, because cows or whatever could step on the tails, but why even the ones just to be used as pets? I always thought that was weird. Even when we picked up my Australian Cattle Dog as a puppy she had her tail docked.

DragonMaster 1,166 Posted July 29, 2014 I wonder this as well. I thinks it's mostly just because, at this point, the expectation for the breed is a docked tail. The image of these dogs that people have in their minds is that they have docked tails, so to see one with a tail would be strange (even though that is their natural state). At least, that's my best guess. I don't really see the point for those that are just going to be pets. 1 Cucco reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
