My latest. He ended up homeless when his owner went back in the Navy due to the employment situation. Some incompetent vet mangled his ears when he was a pup. Ive rescued a few of these now and i must say they're my favorite breed now.

Yeah it was a vet. His former owner is a good guy, he kept all the vet records and everything. Poor dog is just a victim of the situation. Thank god he wasnt abused or anything, he just has been left homeless. It was a vet clinic in Atlanta that performed it, just not a competent one.

yeah I wasn't sure if it was done before your buddy got him
it supposed to be done when they're very little..like tail docking is done when they're a few days old (don't be present for that ever)

I was a vet tech for awhile when i was younger. I have seen enough stupid mutilations of animal s to last a lifetime.
I dont dock ears or tails of any of mine. Its hard to improve over evolutionary biological traits for most animals. They have ear flaps and tails for a reason. I know there are also arguments for doing some procedures but none that ive heard change my mind about it unless its a fixable deformity of some sort. The vet who done his ears screwed up( beside not getting them even) by trimming them too small and left none of the botyom of the auricle. It doesn't seem to cause him issues but it makes him look like a dog some dimwit asshole took a boxcutter to. Which people recognize as the trademark of the humanoid Fucktards that fight them for entertainment and ruin the public opinion of the breed in the process. Its sad because raised in a proper way they are one of the breeds that loves and desires to please people the most. Often times Even after long periods of abuse.

I wouldn't even let the vet remove my puppies' dew claws, but I did have to break through and get them all fixed when they got older, they were pampered for several days after that...
removing a dogs tail or ears is like making a person so they can't make facial expressions and expecting them to communicate the same. friggin pointless mutilation.
Pollie is n untouched pitt and I couldn't be happier with that fact. I've thought about getting her dew claws removed before even where she's a bit older because she tends to split them and sometimes they can cause her a bit of pain. Despite that I've never been able to bring myself to get it done. I'd rather take time out of my day to check them, clip, file or super glue them together and use cuticle cream to keep them from splitting than put her through having a finger ripped out.

I haven't dealt with puppies in a very long time but both of my dogs are not docked or cropped...the silky is supposed to be docked but isn't.
I won't say that it doesn't detract from his overall appearance but he's not going to any shows so it doesn't really matter

heres a good article on dew claws...I've never heard of front dew claws being removed but I had to look it up to be sure..
I know I've been present for the removal of rear dew claws but I can't remember why

even though this is a dog thread, I'll add that I'm totally against having cats declawed

Our vet claimed they get caught on stuff and get ripped out, but we never had that issue. I trim them the same as all the other nails.
My dogs use them all the time, especially if I give them big fat carrots, they dig their front dew claws in and go to work munching on the carrot like a bone....

yeah. I've never had it recommended to me to remove front dew claws... It seems like if they are actually attached and can be articulated it would be akin to cutting off thumbs
how I feel about dogs with thumbs is another conversation..lol

Chihuahua accidentally eats meth, freaks the hell out - Guyism
Important PSA everyone: Don?t feed your dogs meth, they might freak the hell out. This Chihuahua accidentally found some crank in a garbage can and went to town. Thankfully, he?s ok. Apparently it wasn?t the blue stuff. Or was it? Did Walter White come back to haunt this poor chihuahua? Dammit Walt, low blow man.
Natalie Lowry says Sticks, her 5-pound Chihuahua, had a tiny doggie freak out when she sniffed out a stash of speed at a Phoenix motel and swallowed it.
?She was shaking and having muscle spasms and tremors,? Lowry told 3TV. ?She would run forward and backward, throwing her head back and forth. Her eyes were bloodshot. Her heart was just racing.?
The dog?s owner had to pay $1k in vet bills. No word on how much doggie drug rehab costs.
Tangententially related: Don?t eat the garbage at the Phoenix La Quinta Inn. Also, don?t eat garbage in general.

Dog getting freed from a metal clamp will brighten your day - Guyism
Dog getting freed from a metal clamp will brighten your day
There?s something particularly sweet about helping out an animal just because, sometimes, they?re totally unable to help themselves. This dog got a clamp stuck on its mouth from some mountain equipment; watching him safely freed might make things dusty.
Even better news: The little guy got adopted after his harrowing story was featured on the local news in Detroit. You lick your lips to celebrate, Boulder. Cherish each drop of slobber.

Guy finds dog alive under Midwest tornado rubble in most touching reunion you'll ever see - Guyism
Guy finds dog alive under Midwest tornado rubble in most touching reunion you?ll ever see
Jon Byler Dann assumed that his dog, Maggie, had met an unfortunate ending during the tornado that hit his town of Washington, Ill. But then something magical happened: They found her alive and well underneath the wreckage.
The photos, first captured by The Weather Channel and now going viral on photo site Imgur, show the amazing recovery.
Byler Dann and team dug through the rubble for whatever was left. They then heard a faint bark as they went through the area where their house had been just 30 hours prior.
Maggie had refused to leave her kennel when the storm first hit to join the family in the basement. They found her wrapped in carpeting underneath chunks of the house.
Byler Dann burst into tears when he was reunited with the shivering Maggie.
After some more hugs and water, Maggie was taken to the vet for a checkup.
Though she?s currently being checked out for injuries ? local vets say she sustained broken bones and possibly some internal damage ? Maggie is expected to make a full recovery.
You can see more of Byler Dann (and Maggie)?s story at the Weather Channel?s website.

#peanutbutterseries, An Instagram Photo Series Featuring Dogs Eating Peanut Butter
#peanutbutterseries, An Instagram Photo Series Featuring Dogs Eating Peanut Butter
#peanutbutterseries is a photo series of dogs eating peanut butter. Stephanie McComb, guardian of two German Shorthair Pointers, Travis and Gus (aka the Pointer Brothers) started the series in November 2013, seemingly by accident.
?I was watching the boys eating peanut butter one day and burst out laughing at the faces they were making,? says Stephanie of her pups Travis and Gus, ?so I grabbed my camera and started shooting. The photos ended up being so funny I wanted to see other dogs in action!?
Since then, there have been hundreds of people have been tagging pictures of their own pooches partaking in the goodness that is peanut butter. It?s insanely cute.

Izzie the Dachshund Plays it Cool When Caught Staring
Izzie the Dachshund is one cool cat, turning her head at the same time as her buddy Taylor White so that he doesn?t catch her staring at him.

Genius dog figures out how to steal chicken nuggets from a toaster oven in daring heist - Guyism
Genius dog figures out how to steal chicken nuggets from a toaster oven in daring heist
If I were this dog?s owner, I would be kind of mad at him eating my chicken nuggets. But at the same time, you?ve got to admire how daring his thievery of them really is. Pure dog ingenuity.
That seems a little risky for this dog to just go around touching the hot toaster oven with his bare paws. He could burn himself. I?d be a little more impressed if he touched it, saw it was hot, then grabbed an oven mitt. Stupid dog.

Blaze, an adorable but obstinate 11-month old Husky, doesn?t want to go into his kennel and has no problem saying so. By using a combination of his verbal skills and his body weight, Blaze makes it very clear that it?s not going to happen.

Funnyplox has put together a funny video compilation of dogs who play dead after being shot with a finger, but unlike the previously posted finger-shot felines, these dogs drop without hesitation and with just a bit more flair.
