That’s because people think it’s cute and pay their breeder to literally chop their tails off as puppies. One of their first experiences in the world they’re born into is being mutilated for peoples aesthetic pleasures. Super cute stuff

I thought corgis were like one of the rare breeds with naturally no tails?

This should be the only type of corgis people are allowed to have!! It’s also much cuter than their mutilated brethren

No they all have tails until we cut them off them. The owners will say “I didn’t choose that!” While paying the breeder for the dog.

A few of them are naturally bob-tailed, but the majority have their tails docked. It was originally because they were herding dogs, so docking their tails made it clear they were working dogs and allowed their owners to avoid a luxury tax.

Now it's just tradition, though with more countries making docking illegal, I'm sure we'll see more long, fluffy corgi tails in the future.
