But I do think it's strange seeing rotties and boxers with full tails
my ex had a doberman with a docked tail who passed away, he then got two pups with full tails, its strange but you get used to it although i prefer the look of certain dogs without them and there are breeds which benifit from docked tails ( hunting dogs for example) i think its something that no one will agree oon =]
