Default 'Standard' cornus?

I saw some dogwoods in council-run shrubberies which were 3 ft single stems with a pollard like top,
so the coloured stems were raised from ground height. My garden is too full to allow room for normal
pruning and display. This standard-ising seems a good idea for congested plots.
Does anyone know how to do this? If I cut back a dogwood to one stem, won't it sprout from the
bottom again?
