Default Anyone have a yorkie who has been debarked?

My Yorkie is a puppy mill rescue and one of the things they did to him was debark him. for those who don't know what this is (and I didn't!) is they cut their vocal chords so they can't bark. The rescue told me he could only squeak and when I got him he made a sort of barking sound, like he had laryngitis sort of sound. But the longer he is here, the stronger his little bark is becoming! I did read somewhere that their vocal chords can actually grow back, maybe once they start to use them again?

Be interested in hearing if others have found this too
