I never knew what a "tail pocket" was until [MENTION=657]mom2bullies[/MENTION], explained to me.

We adopted Vegas when he was 4 months and was in the process of moving, I had all his vet paper's and put them in a safe place. I still have not found my safe place, lol. Anyway I see all the tails on some of the bully's in pictures and thought to myself "maybe Vegas had a tail amputation" because he only has about a one inch flap.

I am curious to find out, do you think he has had a tail amputation?? This is all he has.

I have always since I got him washed his bottom and face nightly with non-scented baby wipes and dried both. Does your bully have a tail?? (If you have a pic. I would love to see) lol

When I first joined EBN I wondered about bulldog tails, I started this thread. I didn't know if they were born with the little tail or if they were longer like a beagle, bassett, pitbull, etc when they were born and then docked. As you can see here they are born with short, little piggy like tails.

http://www.englishbulldognews.com/forums/general-bulldog-talk/496-question-about-tails.html

Now days we have alot more members so maybe we can get more input. Samson has a small nub of a tail too, it's so darn cute :) I'll get a pic of it tonight.

[MENTION=657]mom2bullies[/MENTION], I looked at the pictures of Vegas R. I do see the difference. Vegas B has an inch over Vegas R. So his tail is normal to be this short? I was looking at the two little cute swirls on Vegas R's butt, then I looked back at Vegas B's behind and he has the same two swirls, I never noticed before, I can't believe I have never noticed this, how cute!!!

Gracie has a little curly q like a piggy tail. It wiggles furiously when she's happy to see someone. So cute.

I LOVE Gracies tail, how cute it is! Cuttys tail is a little twsity piggy tail also and very short. In fact my cousins wife, when she first met Cutty, asked me if she could pull it thinking it was just a corkscrew like a piggy. I laughed and said "You can but it wont get longer." Not sure if I have any kind of pics tho, let me look.

Not the best pic but this is him grubbing on a beef bone a few months ago.

we'll try to catch the wiggle on video sometime..but she won't do it on demand..just when she's happy to see someone who's been gone..like when I come home from work.

No pics, but Gertie and Ida have totally different tails. Gertie's is a little corkscrew but Ida's is straight. It used to stick straight out when she was real little, but now it is down, smooth. Looks much better than it used to.
