Docking the tail of Doberman Puppies

Doberman has very long tail. From the photo below, you can see that the tail of the puppies were almost as long as their hind legs.

2 days old puppies (Before tail was docked)

We had our doberman puppies' tail docked when they were 3 days old. According to the veterinarian, the puppies sensory nerve at the tail would start to develop after 5 days. Hence, there was no pain in docking their tail at 3 days old.

The veterinarian gave us some antibiotic cream to apply to the tail area of the puppies to prevent infection. In addition, we had to keep the space where we kept the puppies very clean. We had to clean the space every 2 hours.

Each puppy was given a name at birth and we used coloured ribbon to identify the puppies.
