How to bathe a Samoyed puppy
0 Jul 26,2025
If possible, it is best to take your Corgi to a pet hospital or veterinary station for tail docking surgery, which is relatively safe. And you don’t have to worry too much about post-operative care because it’s a very simple surgery.
If there is no pet hospital nearby, you can use rubber bands to dock the Corgi’s tail within 1-7 days after the Corgi is born. First prepare a relatively elastic rubber band, then wipe and disinfect the base of the Corgi's tail where it is to be docked with alcohol or iodine, and then tie it up with the rubber band. Be sure to use force. The purpose of exerting force is to prevent blood circulation and cause muscle necrosis.
If you persist like this for a period of time, the corgi's tail will become necrotic and fall off, thus achieving the purpose of tail docking. However, you should pay attention to daily disinfection. You can use iodine to disinfect every day, and maintain environmental hygiene to avoid infection. Generally speaking, as long as the method is correct, the tail of the Corgi puppy will fall off in about 5 days, and the wound will be relatively small. Finally, use iodine to slightly disinfect the Corgi's wound.
