Apparently, my dog also has "Happy Tail" syndrome. Apparently there is such a thing. She wags her tail with such force (enough to bruise your knee cap.... Yeah, fun) that she splits the tip open. The result is blood flinging everywhere. quote cocozoo

Yes there is such a thing. Fortunately I have one setter who runs with a straight- out, motionless tail . Great for avoiding injury , but not liked for trial purposes. quote Sharon

Oh yes, definitely. I meant for bleeding tail tip not cold tail.
PS No - bark collar for the terrier is working great. Neighbors are very happy.:thumbup: Sh

Has your dog healed up? How long did it take?
It actually took one day of full rest. I took him out today with same temperature conditions and same amount of retrievers with no issues. So I will see how it goes in the future. Thanks for asking and thanks everyone for your inputs.
My lab had it a couple of times when she was younger. And after about 2 years of age, she has not had it again. The first time I saw it, I thought somehow she had broken her tail and was very worried.....until I did some research and found it quite common. 2 days of rest and it went away.
