Greyhounds suffering from whip tail which don’t heal can have the removed as well.

Have you read the legislation?

Some are docked for various health reasons. Could be a working or failed working dog too.
“ Current legislation states 
that only veterinary surgeons can carry out this procedure. However, vets have also been advised by the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons, their governing body, that tail docking purely for cosmetic reasons would lead to disciplinary proceedings.
Country vets who deal with working gundogs are well aware 
of the damage that can be caused to an undocked tail, notably in spaniels, so will usually undertake the procedure if they are aware the puppies will be going to working homes. Dew claws can still be removed too, because they can 
be badly torn in working dogs.

I am pleased you have found your dog but how do you have a dog that is a year old with a docked tail?
