2014年7月7日 · Ivan's tail was redocked. I wouldn't say the vet who did it was a Doberman specialist, but I'm happy with the result. There was no preliminary testing. Once he was in there he could clearly see what happened. Whoever docked Ivan the first time cut through the bone at an angle creating a wedge. The recovery wasn't bad either.

2012年9月16日 · Some dogs, do indeed, hit doors and doorframes with their tail and eventually have to have it amputated because of the bloody mess this causes. I owned an floppy eared, undocked(my choice), doberman/weimaraner cross that never had a problem with his tail, but I have seen some on here have problems with long tails. That is an individual dog thing...

2009年6月27日 · the only thing is that i see some doberman's on internet with different long tails, hound-like, small curl at end, totally curled and laying on back and curled laying to the side on back.

2009年4月30日 · Many, many years ago, when I was a child and my parents got our first Doberman, we had the same situation with the tail and were told almost exactly the same thing by the breeder. Well, all did not go well, the tail became infected and abscessed, The tail was re-docked and other than a tail slightly shorter than average, Trina was fine.

2020年11月10日 · I'm a new doberman owner and my puppy was cropped and docked before I got him from the breeder. So as it turned out the tail was docked same time as ears, which means around 9-10 weeks. Way too late! When I took the puppy home everything looked okay, the wound was healing and had nice stitches.

2012年7月28日 · Hi! I am the mommy of a 6 month old red dobe male named "Audeaux". My baby chews his tail until it bleeds!!!! Let me start at the beginning. We purchased Audeaux when he was about 8 weeks. His ears were already racked and his tail already docked. It looked a bit scabby but the breeder said that was bc they had just been docked.
