Don't have to worry about bleeding or anything when u cut them?

I put and old steak knife with a wooden handle on the stove burner until red hot towards the pointed end about 1 inch...

I have a sharp kitchen knife and a cutting board on the bar by the stove...

I also have a tube of antibiotic ointment

then I grab a pup and squeeze the tail on the side of the pup that won't be cut off...this I do to keep the pup from bleeding

I set the pup on the cutting board and 1 stroke down and forward and the tail is cut off...

I then cauterize the pups tail so it will not bleed with the old steak knife...only do it for a few seconds...been using the same steak knife for more than a few years...

rub ointment on tail...

repeat the process with the other pups...

Training dogs is not about quantity, it's more about timing, the right situations, and proper guidance...After that it's up to the dog...
