Does Your BT Wag His/Her Tail?

by Christine

Ollie

Ollie is a happy dog. You can tell when he's really happy, he does that Boston dance/jump. But he's never wagged his tail. Is it because his tail is a curly cue? He doesn't even wag his butt, like other tailless breads do. I'm wondering if that's normal, or if poor Ollie is "wag challenged" (politically correct verbiage). :)
Anyone with any thoughts out there?
Thanks!

my boston does in fact wag his tail but it doesnt move much. part of it could be just because of the size of the nub as obviously they are not all the same. the best thing to do is ask the vet. but im sure that there is no serious medical problem with him! he is adorable!!!

"Wag Challenged"
by: Anonymous

My little guy does not wag his tail, but will put his ears up and down when he seems happy.

I have a 5 month old BT and when he gets excited his tail goes crazy its hilarious watching his little nub go crazy.

If that is the case, then My BT is "wag challenged" too.. He does try to wag his little tail but no luck in getting to to move alot.
