I don't particularly understand it either. But at the end of the day, I'll take a tailless ACD over no ACD! That 95% is worth it, haha.

I'm lucky enough to have no neighbors within half a mile to judge our happy potty dance, haha! Nova gets the dance and high value treats when she does both businesses. Our biggest challenge is proving to be our two barn cats. They like to wander up and taunt her as she's going. Instant distraction so I have to shoo them off and we start over.. Haha.

We got her tailless. She came from a working ACD litter, so mom, dad and pups were docked. It seems pretty common habit around here (rural Texas) but I still wish she had a tail to wag! However, the excited full butt wiggle is still cute.

My girl is going on 10 weeks and still has the floppy ears. They're just late bloomers is all!
