Optional Information

Answer

Hi XXXXXXXX,

Tails are normally docked at 3-4 days old. Usually ear cropping is done around 9-11 weeks of age, though some will do it a week or two earlier. Here are some sites you might find interesting concerning the subject.

To find a reputable vet to perform this surgery, you will want to contact your breeder or a local breed club for recommendations.

Hope this helps.
