Can dogs 'control' their tails (like we control our hands or our feet, for example),or is it an automatic reflex?

Dogs are too dumb to move anything right. And they smell bad.

Cats are better.

as far as whether or not wagging is a reflex I am not sure, but dogs can be taught to hold their tails parallel to the ground, or at least my show dogs used to be able to do it.
