[QUOTE=EmrldShdwQueen;1765705]My mentor has a dog that she bought when she was already 2 years old and had previously been debarked. Trust me, it doesn't make much difference. Her raspy "bark" is actually more annoying than a normal bark.
I almost feel that if it's a choice between debarking and rehoming, the dog would be better off in a new home.[/QUOT
My girlfriend has a dog that was debarked prior to her getting her, and her bark is now a raspy bark.. but I know another person that apparently done right, this dog has no bark... again not my choice believe me... gee if my guys did not bark when I came to the door.. I would be in panic mode.. For me there bark is music to my ears to know all is safe and alive.. I guess you can tell I hate going out and leaving my dogs home.. |
