Why do Rottweilers have their tail docked?

Prevent injuries to Rottweilers. The earliest Rottweilers were working dogs, mainly used for hunting and herding. When running in the forest, their tails wag too much and they are easily injured. So I had my tail cut off since I was a child. In the past, when they were used for hunting, these dogs were quite excited. When they saw the tail of prey, they would move around in the bushes, making them easy to be spotted by prey. So hunters cut off their tails. Later, they stopped hunting and switched to family breeding. Due to their relatively tall height, many cups and vases placed on the table were easily broken by their tails hitting the ground, so they were also cut and gradually evolved into a habit. .
