I am after people's advice on potential health issues of a deformed tail. This saint bernard puppy has been born with a fish hook shaped tail. The vet thinks that it may have been wrapped around his leg in utero. In all other ways he is a good strong pup. What I am wanting advice on is if his tail will cause him problems as he grows? As the tail is an extension of the vertebrae will it be causing him any pain or discomfort? Will he need to have it docked later on? I know absolutely nothing about this topic and google searches haven't come up with anything either
