none - their tails are docked for cosmetic reasons.
Although a 'type' of dog with no tail would be a hot-dog!

Pembroke Welsh Corgi
"Historically, the Pembroke was a breed with a natural bob tail (very short tail). Due to the advent of docking, the trait was not aggressively pursued, with breeders focusing instead on other characteristics, and the tail artificially shortened if need be. Given that some countries are now banning docking, breeders are again attempting to select for dogs with the genes for natural bob tails."

Dogs are all born with tails but people like to cut them off as puppies with certain breeds.

I think all dogs are born with tails, but some breeds have their tails docked at about 3 days old, such as dobermans, rottweillers, min pins, Jack Russelll, Boxers, etc.

There are very few dogs born with "no" tail but there alot that get their tails cropped as pups. Usually the breeds that were orginally intended for security purposes so people or animals can not pull on their tail to defend themselves.

Yes, all dogs are born with tails BUT I understand that it is rumoured that the docking of tails is to be made illegal especially in Show Dogs

Schipperkes I believe are the only dog to be born naturally without a tail.

Most dogs have tails, some people just get them "Docked" or cut off after birth.
They may have some breeds that are genetically changed to be born tail-less...
But it's probably rare.
Just leave the tail on or have it docked when they are young.
