Banding vs Cutting Tails

Didn't see anything on this and wanted some current information. Where I live, most vets will not crop the dog's ears and only a few want to dock tails. Is there any current information out there on which technique is the best?

On sheep, we band the tails and testicles. The European ban on this practice makes animals in their nature form look a little different. I have two Bouviers and one has the tail and one doesn't.
