Boxer tails - long or docked? (tail docking)

on the subject of boxers with tails they are getting more common now, I personally prefer them without, boxer tails are quite fragile and can be broken,

We should have pics of boxers with tails will post when I master the posting of photo`s yvonne

TBH I do like the look of the Boxer without its tail, but I do also feel sorry for the little puppies. So Im in a dilema because if I went and got another Boxer pup would I go for one with a tail or without?

if you wanted one with a tail, i think you would have to book it prior to birth and pay for it upfront as it is done in the first week i think

I saw a boxer with a tail the other day. Never seen one with a tail before so it seemed odd at first.

It was a really lovely dog

Are the tails more fragile than other breeds tails?

I dont like cropping ears or tails or whatever anyone would do, unless they have a very good reason for it.

It has been against the law to do so in DK for some years now, and I love to see the boxers, the rottweiler, etc. with long tails and ears.

Couple of boxers with tails down the road from me they look wonderful, and haven't to my knowledge had any problems they play quite rough with Mollie and I would imagine my lump would be good at breaking a tail if they were so fragile.

ALL dogs look better with their tails intact.
