why do you want to mutilate your dog? The cutting of any dogs tail (including Boxers) is illegal and punishable by law in most well educated countries including Australia. The Dog Societies and Breeders have agreed to change their judging requirements for the breeds that used to have docked tails accordingly.

I do not recommend docking a tail yourself if you don't know how, but here are two methods:

There are two methods of docking. The majority of breeders used the technique known as "banding", in which a ligature, normally an orthodontic band, was placed over the end of the puppies tail at 24-96 hours old. This effectively cuts off the blood supply to the end of the tail, which comes away within 3 days.

Most vets used to cut the tail with surgical scissors. There is generally no need for stitches, but on occasions these can be used, especially with the larger breeds. Nowadays in the UK, vets are more than likely to use the banding method.

What do they do with puppies tails when they cut them off?

No, I don't think so but in some cases they cut off the tail because there's an infection and they don't want the infection to spread. With Collie and Aussies they cut off the tail when they are born. Also some dogs are born with short tails. But I personally think that you can ask your vet; he/she would be very happy to answer.
