I didn't know they docked poodles tails. I bought a maltipoo. He was a year when I got him and his tail was docked. Do you know if that is normal practice. I thought maybe he had an accident when he was young.

Why the hell would you ever want to do that?!

No, not at that age...when it's done when they are three days old they don't have all the nerve endings in their tail and it heals quite quickly. At a later age it will be quite painful and will not heal correctly...you'd be hard pressed to find a vet who would even do it at that age. Also, I've yet to see a poodle with a docked tail.

poodles were designed with long tails. why alter a God Given design? Dogs need their tails.
