29. Yes, debarked

It was so damn sad. They way they do it "on the cheap" is to shove a hot rod down the throat; no anesthetic. Period.

That poor dog is better of no longer among the living, believe me.

As for the person doing this, not sure as I stated whether or not still in business.

I've noted that people don't want to buy a debarked dog much anymore since this happened. However, it is still being done in those same states I have listed.
