Tail Docking in Dogs. Information on Canine Tail Docking. Tail docking is the surgical removal of part of the dog's tail. This procedure is most often performed in healthy puppies between 2 to 5 days of age. A similar procedure may be performed in older pets, but this is considered a tail amputation, not a tail dock.
Patterson-Kane doesnât support the procedure herself. Cropping -- cutting off the floppy part of a dogâs ear -- is usually performed on anesthetized dogs between 6 and 12 weeks old. The ears are then taped to a hard surface for several weeks while they heal so they stay upright. Tail docking is banned in many parts of the world, including Australia and the U.K.
