Tail docking and castration of lambs under three (3) months of age by non-veterinarians are acceptable provided that: 1  the procedures are performed by a skilled and preferably accredited operator; and. 2  appropriate pain relief is provided; and. 3  the tail is docked at the third palpable joint.
Many Boxer breeders will have a puppy docked very early, within a few days of being born. Since a dog is not sold or given to a new owner until the age of at least 8 weeks, many owners do not see the docking process or the healing process. Although this may make some cringe, if a Boxer puppy under 12 weeks old is to have their tail docked, it is usually done without anesthesia. In states where it is legal, an owner may have their Boxer's tail docked at any age; however the older a dog is the longer amount of time is needed for recovery.
