Banning of Unnecessary Cosmetic Surgery on Dogs












This is a great step towards a new consciousness that respects nature, in this case, dogs. Most breeds get some kind of cosmetic surgery, wether it's clipping their tails, making their ears pointy as in the case of Dobermans, or the atrocious "de-barking" where human pigs who are too lazy to train their dogs to minimize unecesary barking, will have a surgeon take out their vocal cords, making the dog unable to communicate at all. Imagine your neighbor taking out your baby's vocal cords because he cried too much at night.

Yet, there seems to be some glimpse of consciousness in the world and this is certainly proof of it. 

"Banfield, the nation's largest network of animal hospitals, with more than 730 hospitals and 2,000 veterinarians nationwide, has just announced that it will no longer dock dogs' tails, crop their ears, or remove their vocal cords--a cruel procedure known as devocalization, or de-barking!"
