Debarking Issues Again

[Steve]

Up until recently I was of the belief that we could debark provided we gave the vets a stat dec saying that this was an alternative to euthanasia. In my eyes, it has just been this year 2010 that the law has changed. However I know of vets still doing debarkings.

How can someone who had their dogs debarked 4 years ago be in trouble for it now? Just get them to do a stat dec saying they provided a stat dec at the time of the procedure, and that it was the last resort.

This dog ownership thing is becoming a big giant joke.

The owner has been told that she needs to go after the council notes of years ago to prove she had council visits and noise complaints at the time.

It also appears even if she is able to do that having noise complaints against you isnt the same as what is required for the vet to proceed.
