Hello, jonah89, The whole translation would be: "because R.R. has cut it to it (that is to say "has cut the tail to the dog". So, SE: to the dog, and LO: the tail. LE (indirect object) becomes SE when followed by the direct object (LO/s, LA/s). R.R. LE ha cortado el rabo---- R.R. SE LO ha cortado.

As far as I have learnt, "le lo" sounds like a word that may be offensive to spanish speakers. So whenever Le and Lo appear together, ''Le'' is replaced by ''se'' :)

"se lo ha cortado" it would be "has cut it" "it" being the tail. You can't say "it has been cut" without changing the sentence. ie. "The dog of San Roque has no tail because it has been cut by Ramón RamÏrez" because what was cut is the tail and the one who cut it is Ramón Ramirez. Your sentence it's correct. :)
