As a Corgi owner, I can tell you that a good portion of Pembrokes have no or very little tail at birth. My corgi has a tail but it's only a quarter of an inch long. Laws are changing -- for example, tail docking is now illegal in England so expect tails.
The pembroke became popular as a herding dog, incidentally, because in wales a thousand years ago, only dogs with tails were taxed since most dogs are only useful for catching foxes and rabbits with their tail intact. Since pembrokes didn't have tails in the first place, they became popular since you didn't have to pay the tax.
