Dogs have a short tail for several reasons, Corgidogs are generally broken How to dock a corgi and what to pay attention to?

1: There are many dogs with long tails and short tails to reduce damage

2: The needs of work, the inconvenience caused by long tails to work

3: The special requirements and aesthetics of the dog breed

If the dog is If you want to dock the tail, the younger the better, the personal opinion is that the tail can be docked on the third day after birth, because the younger the dog is, the pain center of the puppy has not developed very well, and it is better to perform surgery at that time. , The operation can be performed without general anesthesia. The methods are: shearing and disinfection of the surgical site, local infiltration anesthesia, and an assistant fixing the tail and keeping it in a horizontal position. According to the requirements of the dog breed, the surgeon makes a circular incision of the skin at the anatomical tail with a surgical knife, and then pushes it up 1-2 cm under the skin to cut it at the joint. After ligating the blood vessels and fully hemostasis, the flaps were sutured and disinfected with iodine.

5 17-day-old Schnauzers, who had just opened their eyes recently, had to undergo a new surgery due to the owner using a rubber band to tie their docked tails and had unsuccessfully inflamed their tails. The puppies whose eyes have not been opened for 7 days are also inflamed by the same method as above, and 2 Yorkshires are also inflamed. The above are all re-operations, and the prognosis is very good. Personal summary of tail docking surgery 1: Use a rubber band to tie the tail docking method. First, it may not be tied properly, allowing the rubber band to move and rubbing and inflaming, and then bitch Tim, who has wounds are more likely to become inflamed. 2: Some puppies have finished the operation. After the operation, because the doctor did not bandage the wound well, the bitch licked off the lines, the wound was split, and some had to be sutured again.

My personal opinion is that the owner should not deal with it by himself, and it is best to take it to a professional doctor After the operation, the doctor should bandage the wound to avoid being added by the bitch, prevent the thread from falling off, and do not let the wound get wet. The stitches are removed 7 days after the operation.
