Roz, I know that you are an experienced and loving dog owner.
I completely understand that debarking is a last resort.
The very thought of debarking is offensive and makes me cringe.
But when I think of the options, I can certainly understand that debarking may be a more
humane option than euthanizing the dog or trying to beat or shock the dog into submission.
