Is it possible to have your dog's vocal cords removed?

I love my dog but she's gotten too loud and my quality of life has deteriorated rapidly. Ever since construction started down the block it's been non-stop even at night when there is no activity. The construction itself isn't even that loud but she hears something that triggers her. I can't move out and she is untrainable when it comes to barking.

  • If you can’t handle training a dog and want to complain about it barking what’s the point in getting one? Just giving up and wanting to cut vocals for it instead, sounds more like a personal issue. Don’t get a animal if you can’t handle it.

    It's relatively simple to train a dog to bark less. You have to be bothered to do it though. I've worked with some horribly abused dogs, and also dogs rescued from illegal fighting rings. I trained them to bark less at loud noises. I am not a professional dog trainer. I just did this during my normal day of looking after them to help them get adopted.
    If I can train them not to bark at loud noises then I highly doubt that your dog is untrainable.

    Sounds more likely that you are just an idiot.

    You can snip them, I've heard what they sound like after. Trust me you will regret that one. Just be a good owner and train her better

    Please don't do this to your dog. This procedure is very inhumane and most vets won't even do it, because it's highly unethical. Think about it, how would you like to lose the ability to speak? Because that's what you're talking about doing to your dog.

    Just take heavy dose of an antipsychotic(seroquel) before sleeping then no amount of dogs barking will bother you.

      I used to have to take Seroquel, and Ambien together because not only could I not sleep, but when I did I would have nightmares, and would scream in my sleep.

          I probably do, but those two different sleeping pill nights ended long ago. It will be eighteen years in July.

    You could have the entire dog removed instead of just its vocal cords. (and given to someone with a brain)

    You wan't to find a way to remove your dogs vocal cords?? Hello?? You know sometimes people don't think quite when they buy something. For instance a DOG! You SHOULD know when you get a dog what the risks are and what it takes to raise it properly.

    Not complain when your LIFE gets a bit SHITTY! It's not the dogs FAULT! GO to a training school and put some investment into your dog if you want a change.

    PS: When you cant hear a break in and some idiot stands next to your bed. Boy do you feel shitty removing your dogs vocal cords.

    If she has a long snout you can get a muzzle that wraps around it so they can drink but not bite/bark.

    Don't be a piece of shit, punk-ass biatch! Getting a dog debarked is a very shitty thing to do! If you actually go out, and pay money to have you dog mutilated, because you're too stupid to train your dog then I will get down on my knees, and pray to God that someone will break into your house, and sodomize you with an stale carrot!

    What you need to do is to pull your head out of your ass, and go to Google, then google search for training methods, and gadgets to help you deal with a dog that barks too much. It's not that complicated, you stupid idiot!

    They actually have collars that are designed to help curb barking in dogs that bark too much. Google books on dog training, and start reading!

    How would I like it have your vocal chords sniped? I bet you wouldn't like it!

    • Maybe consider the seroquel again?

      I dont like it either but people cut their dogs vocal cords regularly. In fact almost every vet will do this surgery. I'm with you on the idea that it's not cool and downright cruel, but the op isn't molesting children or beating up old ladies so I think your response was a bit of a psychotic episode. I dont thonl that God would grant your wish of sodomy with a stale carrot. I think he would send you the miracle of... Seroquel.

        OP should learn how to train his dog though. It's not that difficult.

    Yes, it can be done.
    I knew of neighbors years ago with dogs like that.
    Theyd jump all over the fence and make a smokers wheezie noise.
    Its poor parenting.
    Can it be done, yes.
    Should it be done, hell no.
    Dont have kids either.
    They dont shut up either.
    Its not the dog thats untrainable.

    Hello OP as a fellow member of the dog won’t stop barking club I feel your pain and I think some of the people on here are being a bit harsh with you. I don’t think removing the dog’s vocal cords is a good solution but I empathize with having a dog that’s difficult to train or not knowing the magic solution for when there are things going on outside that she insists on barking at repeatedly. Nobody on here has actually said how to keep a dog who wants to bark all the time from not barking but I can tell you that I was once given the no barking dog collar thing and it doesn’t work on my dog. Also people like to say don’t get an animal if you can’t afford it or if you aren’t prepared to deal with it etc. but you don’t always know how life will go or how the animal will react to certain situations or for instance if at one time you will have money and later you won’t. Just saying.

  • Most dogs should have their vocals ripped out... Stupid animals just run around and make noise. People still want a pet dog though??

      • You think I didn't already think of that. Besides, just "stain" makes me more mysterious, see, you just never know what stain I might be.
