What is akc standards for dobermann tail dock length?

The American Kennel Club (AKC) standard for the Doberman Pinscher's tail dock length ranges between 1 and 2 inches (2.5 to 5 centimeters) from the base of the tail. Here's the relevant section from the AKC breed standard:

Tail

* Set high and docked to a length of one to two inches (2.5 to 5 centimeters).

* When the dog is in motion, the tail should be held level with, or higher than, the back but never curled over.

The tail docking is typically performed when the puppy is only a few days old, and it is considered an essential part of the breed standard in certain countries, including the United States, to maintain a consistent appearance. However, it's important to note that tail docking has been widely debated due to ethical and welfare concerns, and some countries have restricted or banned the practice.
