Dog Breeds Short Tail. Tails are straight, screw/curled, gay, saber, taper, whip, plum, otter, brush, sickle, snap, carrot, and tuft. Tail shapes can be long, medium, short, or bobbed.

This is a very short tail that you will mainly find in dog breeds like old english sheepdogs, australian shepherds, and pembroke welsh corgis. Does the length of a dog’s tail mean anything? The scottish deerhound dog breed has a crank tail.
