It's not. They are usually cropped by the breeders as puppies.
Because they have to cover up their poop cutter!!!!
A dogs tail is made of cartlidge so therefore can be flexible and be wagged or curled up or down. Generally if the tail looks relaxed and is up- they are happy.
Some people "dock" their dogs' tails. That is to say they have them cut off when they are very young. Other than that, different species of dog have differing tail-lengths.
Dogs don't have tails because there spine is expanded it also keeps them balanced.

If your dog was born tailless then there will not even be a stub and the tail will be completely missing. Docked tails usually leave a small amount of the tail intact so the dog will have some of its tail left. The natural bobtail gene is very rare and it is unlikely that your dog was born like it.
Yes. The Lynx has a short tail.
A pigs tail is short and curly.
The reason is because short tail cats have both genes of a no tail cat and a genes of a long tail cat. Lets say that a long tail gene is called gene A, and a no tail gene is called gene B. if both cats have short tails that means both cats have both genes A and B equally. so there is a 50-50 chance that each cat gives either gene to the baby This means the possible combinations are that one cat gives the baby an A and the other a B, remember that this possibility comes up twice since it doesn't matter which cat gives the A or the B. The other possibilities are that both cats give the kitten an A, or both cats give the kitten a B. That leaves AB(short tail), BA(short tail), AA(long tail), BB(no tail) so 25% for no tail, 25% for long tail, and 50% for short tail.
There are several different terms for a short tail, and they all mean the same thing, but the method of arriving at the short tail might be what is different. Bobtail is a short or shortened tail for either a cat, horse, dog, or other animal. To be born that way or to cut it short. "Bobtailed". Manx cat has an internal vestigial tail. Nickname "manxtail".

NO Bulldog should have a tail ther then the starndard short, crank, or cork screw. tails are never docked in a full blooded Bulldog, no matter what club they are a member of.

I have a English bulldog myself, and they have it because every dog needs a tail, that is just a part of the way they are. My dog does in fact have a curly tail, but when i see some other English bulldogs, sometimes they are not curly they are just stumps.
yes! its actually western bulldogs here in Australia but we call it bulldogs for short!
Short-tail stingray was created in 1875.
