Does she not make any noise at all when she barks? I thought after the surgical debarking thay could still "bark" but it was much softer and more of a squeek but they still make a sound and they have no idea they aren't making as much noise.
This is what it said in the article I cited:
Q: Do dogs suffer emotionally from debarking?
A: It is a huge myth to suggest dogs are emotionally disturbed by debarking. Debarked dogs can bark. Even if reduced sound comes out of their mouths, they don't seem to notice at all! Debarked dogs that are not being constantly disciplined for barking, in fact, tend to be much happier dogs!
I wonder if it is really true?
