It is correct that if you are just trying to do a cosmetic surgery for tail docking....most vets will not do it after 3 days old.  But since this is a medical issue that the vet I work for refers to as "happy tail" it is possible to remove the tail.  It is much better for the tail to be removed then always have to fight off infection from there being a constant wound on the tail. My suggestion is to go and have the tail looked at and talk over the options with your veterinarian.
