When should a Corgi’s tail be docked? The best time for a Corgi to be in rank should be within 1-7 days after birth. Because research has found that the nerves in the little Corgi’s tail have not yet grown at this time, so it is naturally the best time to dock the tail. If you wait until the dog grows up and the nerves in its tail have grown, and you perform tail docking surgery, the Corgi's pain will be greatly increased.

To dock the tail of a Corgi, you should choose a regular, reputable, and advanced pet hospital. It is best not to think of doing tail docking surgery on your dog yourself. The following are the steps and methods for tail docking surgery on Corgis:

1. Prepare tools: a rubber band or a strong cotton rope for dogs; disinfectant water, etc.;

2. First, soak the selected rubber band or cotton rope in disinfectant water to sterilize and disinfect it; then take out the rubber band and put it on 2/3 of the Corgi's tail. Be sure to tighten it tightly.

3. When tying the tail of a dog, the puppy will definitely bark desperately. This is why parents must not be soft-hearted and must allow the veterinarian to perform the operation technically. Generally, Corgi's tail will become bald about 7 days after it is tied.
