tail docking

Question:

I have had just gotten a 6 week old JRT and her tail was not docked. She is not registered so is there no reason why it should get done? Also, we are planning on having pups in a couple of years for purpose only to supply our extended family with these wonderful dogs, would this effect the pups in any way? Our male is docked. I was told that alot of JRT's are born with naturally docked tails is this true? I also was told if they are born with a "whole" tail then they are of a mixed breed, is this true?
Any information would be appreciated.
