Cropped and docked is the AKC standard for dobies in the US. That is one reason a lot of people get it done. |

The only reason I can think of for people docking tails is if they have a cattle/herding dog and they don't want their tail to get stomped on, but that's honestly my best guess other than for cosmetic reasons |

@Petri Dish I get cropping for working dogs and especially flock guardians because coyotes and other predators might go for the face and ears of your dog. Docking and cropping seem completely unnecessary otherwise, especially docking. |

Kitten If you do it just make sure that the person that does it knows what theyre doing. So they don't butcher them. We had a schnauzer come in with freshly docked ears and they were horrible |

@Forest Yea. @Magnus I get that. I've been looking into the Dobie breed and am unsure if the pup should be cropped and docked. |

techno taking on two was probably a bad idea ;.; I'm too lazy for even one |

Kitten Eh. If they're used for hunting dogs that's one thing but I don't know. My poodles tail is docked |

Tony that's a mood... You should definitely sub to my library forum XD Tea I love training pups. I am currently on my fourth one. |

Just a little question: How do y'all feel about docking and cropping? |
