Here is a video I found on YouTube... very interesting to watch. YouTube - Faces of Devocalization |
Wow. Propaganda? Not a very well-reasoned consideration of the topic. Also, the dog they showed with all the stitches on its throat had clearly been butchered-- poor baby!! :-( Debarking can be done by going in through the open mouth and sort of hole-punching one of the vocal cords with a laser to minimize any bleeding or scarring. From looking at the scars on that poor dog in the video, it doesn't look like he underwent the same procedure. Also the dog in the beginning was debarked for convenience and then neglected outdoors by backyard breeders-- this is not Sophie's life.
