Ah, a nice relaxing facial at the spa. Sounds great, doesn't it? Your dog thinks so, too, according to some pet owners. Yes, The New York Daily News reports that spa treatments like blueberry facials, blow drys and tooth brushings with specially flavored paste are all on the menu at some upscale pet boutiques, like Manhattan's Downtown Doghouse spa.

But some owners have gone past pampering to actual body modifications, like tattoos, earrings, tummy tucks and facelifts, according to the paper. One New York lawmaker has already proposed a law that would ban cosmetic alterations for pets in the state. So what do you think: would you get cosmetic surgery for your pet?

    I am with you, chopping off the tail and ears from an animal, is awful. If you do not love animals, do not get a pet.

    Well some people take off the tail so then when it gets older the fur it grows won't tangle up around it's....if you pardon, the anus and end up hurting it more. We had that done to a poodle we had and my neighbors actually regretted not doing it to theirs because the dog kept getting infections.

    I want a cat that looks like a dragon, throws fire out its butt and barks like a dog.

    But.. I would settle for something like this. My cat probably wouldn't mind being transformed into something similar to this cute little thing. http://t2.gstatic.com/images?...

    Only if it's due to an accident or some sort of condition but not for "better looks". If you don't like the way your dog looks why the hell did you get it?

    Mankind has been mutilating animals to suit our taste since forever. Cropping ears, docking tails. When the pups are brought back from the vets the poor mother's cry so over their wounded babies. I hate it.

    Let's see, having a vet perform unnecessary surgery on your pet to make it prettier, yeah I'd say that's not just crazy, it's CRUEL. Shallow, selfish, unfeeling pricks, they should have some idiot sign THEM up for plastic surgery on a whim. "I think you'd look better with a smaller nose. You're getting a nose job."

    Is this animal abuse?

    I think technically it is, since it is causing pain to an animal unnecessarily. Recovering from surgery can involve considerable discomfort.

    It's not just crazy. It's stupid ! If you have enough money to do something this stupid, give it to someone in drastic need of things like food, shelter, medical care, etc. Justmy opinion !!

    That's just sick. Sure, if you want to modify yourself, do it. It's you who has to live with your plastic, modified self anyway, but don't cut up your dog and rearrange it to your liking. I'm sure they were happy with the way they were. Only the most selfish of low human beings would do that.

    I wouldn't say it's crazy but it is rather cruel. This is beyond disturbing and should be considered a form of animal cruelty.

    Isn't that animal abuse or something?

    Your dog isn't able to give an opinion and you're forcing it to change its features when it has no reason to...

    Anyone who does it should probably be arrested for animal cruelty.

    I take it back. Not arrested, shot.
