Pig tails are typically cut off using a sharp pair of scissors or a knife. It's important to use proper tools and make clean cuts to minimize pain and trauma for the pig.

The boxer tail is long, thin and whip like. Their tendencies to break it while wagging is greatly increased if left undocked. If you've ever seen a boxer then you have seen their trademark "happy tail" and you could imagine the damage that tail would do if it were long.
You really shouldn't cut a boxers tail or ears. Its mean and cruel. It should be natural. Although some breeds need their tails cut boxers don"t
No, I don't think so but in some cases they cut off the tail because there's an infection and they don't want the infection to spread. With Collie and Aussies they cut off the tail when they are born. Also some dogs are born with short tails. But I personally think that you can ask your vet; he/she would be very happy to answer.
All dogs are born with tails. (Except in special circumstances) The stumps that you see are from cropping, or cutting of the tail when the dog is a puppy. It is believed to give the dog a better look.

Tail bobbing should only be done by a licensed vet, since it is major surgery. Both skin and bone needs to be cut, and the skin stitched to cover the wound. Tail bobbing is loosing popularity in the United States, but is still required by many breed standards. Some rat terrier puppies are born with bobbed tails. Mine was!
