Nothing, as long as your dog is a pet it really makes no difference, a show dog should have a curly tail but it is only for looks. Your dogs tail could have been dislocated when it was a puppy or just been born that way but I am sure he/she is lovely straight tail and all and will lead a full and happy life.

How can you get your pugs tail to curl up?
A pugs tail is never straight. A pug's tail is always curled because of its height.So You dont need to worry about curling your pug's tail
When a pugs tail is straight down what does that mean?
When a pug's tail uncurls it means they are unhappy. My pug uncurls her tail when she is scared, or not feeling well or extremely tired. Just like when other dogs put their tail between their legs to show they are scared. Our pug often straightens his tail - when he is asleep or relaxed, eating, or just 'moping around'. As soon as he becomes alert, wakes up, etc his tail instantly springs back up. As long as the tail returns to a curl when the pug becomes alert then it is just normal conduct.

Are pugs born with curly tails?
Pugs have curly tails due to breeding. A Pug's tail is set high, curled as tightly as possible, pinned to the back. Double scroll is more desirable among breeders. The tail is the way dogs express themselves, much like a flag. With a pug, if he is asleep and relaxed, the tail becomes long and loose. If the pug is happy, excited, etc. the tail is curled up tight like a knot on top of its butt. When a pug wags its tail, it will usually be tightly curled and flutter like a butterfly wing. When the tail is loose and wagging, in a circular motion, it is a submissive wag which is quickly followed by the pug showing you his belly.

Do pugs even have curled up tails at birth?
No. A pug doesn't have a curly tail at birth it curls within age. Same with the ears. Most dogs with folded ears are born with ears that stick out but as they get older their ears will grow bigger and then they'll start to fold about three weeks of age. Same with pugs. They don't have folded ears either when born but they will fold when they are bigger. The tail, though, doesn't take until four weeks of age so the ears come first then the tail. At birth a newborn pug's tail is straight and it sticks out but its made to curl up but even at eight weeks old a pugs tail is not curled completely it is loosely curled. For it to be completely curled up, it usually is when the puppy is about three months old but sometimes it takes earier and sometimes longer. The tail curles naturaly and you don't have to do anything to it to make it curl. Even though a pug puppy at birth may have a straight tail, it will curl eventually. It just takes time. And a pug puppy's tail won't stay like that, it'll change. And it doesn't curl because the tail is too small. But it will grow longer and that's when it'll curl.
