FAQ
100 count Orthodontic Bands for low trauma Tail Docking. Assorted colors allow you to see the bands as you work with them.
1/8" works for most medium to large breed tails.
3/16" works for most tiny to smaller breed tails. Those bands are doubled over on the elastrator prongs so that they fit tighter over the tiny tails.
Medium Weight (4.5 oz). 100 per sealed bag. These are the smallest bands available on the market. Very stretchy yet strong. Works with all breeds.
To use these bands, you need proper equipment to apply them.
Order the Tail Docking Kit that includes instructions for use, or order the Elastrator if you already know how to band. These bands cannot be applied by hand.
Booklet with instructions and full Docking Kit can be ordered on
this page
. If you need instructions on how to use this equipment for docking, we suggest that you purchase the instructional booklet or the full kit.
NOTE ON EXPIRATION DATES: The manufacturer is required to put short expiration dates on these bands. We order in large quantities to keep stock for our customers, and sometimes the expiration dates have passed. We have kept bands here and used them on our own puppies that are 15 years past the expiration dates. As long as the packages are kept sealed and out of heat, they should be fine. If you do not wish to accept bands with short expiration dates, please do not order. These are prescription items and very difficult to obtain.

I am so thankful for this resource for these bands. I have used other bands in the past and they either snapped easily, were to thick, or were to loose requiring twisting and looping to get it snug. I have banded 5 litters with these bands and I have always had the best results with no worry. Be sure to get the complete kit with the easy to use tools if you don't already have it!

Complete instructions with color photography are included with kit. This is typically a two-person job. One holds the puppy while the other stretches the band using the elastrator. Band is gently dropped down on the tail in the correct spot. Snip it off immediately if it is not where you want it to be, or drop another band down inside if you feel it is too long. Tails either drop off or can be snipped off in about 5+ days.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do we get the bands on the tail?
Using a proper elastrator, the band is stretched open and rolled down onto the tail. This is typically a 2 person job. However, if you have done it before, you may find it easy to do by yourself.
Why is the band for a smaller puppy (or a puppy with a very thin tail) LARGER than the normal band?
Because the band must be doubled over on the elastrator prongs so that the band will not slide. If you find that the band slides, you must use the 3/16" band doubled over. It is very difficult to double over the 1/8" band, and often makes the band too tight, causing crying. Please use the correct band for your puppies. If you aren't certain, get both sizes so you can try either.
