I've known of only one case where I thought debarking was acceptable. This was an elderly woman with an older dog that was moving into a nursing home. The only way she could take the dog with her was to have her dog debarked. They had been life long companions and both would have been heartbroken with out the other. |
The only person I know who had their dog debarked is my grandmother. She lives in a neighborhood for the elderly and it was a similiar situation to the one above. My grandmother isn't that pleased with the result. The noise that her dog makes now is pitiful. Also, she was told that the procedure can "wear off." I had not heard that before, but that is something else to take into consideration.
