minus-squareleftzero@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkarrow-up5·8 days agoI know declawing is brutally mutilating cats’ toes in order to cause them chronic pain and mobility issues for the cruel enjoyment of the sadistic bastards who do it, but can someone please explain to me what in the name of fuck is “debarking”…‽
minus-square[deleted]@piefed.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up8·8 days agoMutilating dog throats so they can’t make barking noises.
minus-squareleftzero@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkarrow-up3·8 days agoCan they even eat and drink properly after that?
minus-squareDrusas@fedia.iolinkfedilinkarrow-up3·8 days agoYes, but they have a very sad, raspy sound for a bark. I’ve read that it can cause anxiety in the dog (you don’t say, right?).
minus-square[deleted]@piefed.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·8 days agoNo idea, I am only aware of what it is and how it is done. Haven’t met a dog who had their bark removed.
