Yes they do. Most of the ones without tails don't have them because they don't need them. If your dog is supposed to have a tail, then leave it. They use it for balance, just like cats and birds.

Yes. In a high state of emotion they control their tails subconsciously. When they are settling down to sleep, for example, it is a conscious control.

no. dogs do not have prehensile tails because dogs do not use their tail for gasping things like a fifth arm.
