| The hype is not that it makes a difference, but the degree. Of course it will make some degree differnce, but on a Rottie the difference insignificant. For example if we took 100 tailed Rotties and 100 docked Rotties to a Greyhound dog track how much faster would the tailed Rotties be?
As for amputations sure when an animal has learned to walk using a tail for balance then he will be greatly effected at the loss.
But to claim that Rottie with tails have more balance than Rottie docked at three days old is bull.
A spoiler works wonders for a sports car, but has little effect on a RV. While it might help the Suburband to some degree, it will not have the same effect as it will on the Mustang.
Will the Rottie now become as fast as a Sheperd because he has a natural tail? Will the Rottie be able to jump as high as a Malinois because he has a tail?
If the ADRK likes the tail fine, but to try to sale the ideal that a tail improves speed, balance and agility to any significant degree is only hype. "New and Improved" type hype.
