Tail docking is the surgical removal of an animal's tail. Although now mostly outlawed, this practice was historically used on working dogs to distinguish them from companion animals. In Docking Station, a structure reminiscent of K9 training equipment presents isolated furry tails that continuously perform a collective, almost militant choreography.
