If the USA Government places a total ban on the docking of dog's tails and ear cropping, then the rest of the world may follow. Afterall there are 52 million dogs in the USA which is the biggest number per capita of any country.
A partial ban in NZ may be a reprieve for Corgis here because they are classified as a working dog ie farm livestock assistant, and a partial ban would not include farming dogs and perhaps hunting dogs. If the definition of a farm dog means you have to have a Corgi residing at a farm and demonstratively utilised for farming purposes, a Corgi owner could get around this by occasionally alloting his/her Corgi to a farm and allowing the Corgi to "mess around" in herding etc.
