Re: Proper way to dock tails.

The dock will vary more between veterinarians I think. I stood by on the B litter and told him exactly where I wanted the tails cut, as Attila's got a longer nub than I like.

My veterinarian uses a tool that looks like a pair of pliers (it's a blacksmith tool, I believe). Snip and glue.

Some veterinarians will tie the tails still, as will some experienced breeders.

I'll leave the docking to the pros, myself.
