Certainly. The tail is a continuation of the spine, and pulling on it could dislocate vertebrae, rip skin, or cause painful bruising. No one, adult or child, should be allowed to tug on a dog's tail, except in an emergency, to pull a dog away from a very dangerous situation. A dog may also injure itself by biting or aggressively licking its tail.
