  • Animal Party Episode 235 Ears, Tails & Ethics: The End of Cosmetic Cuts

    Animal Party Episode 235 Ears, Tails & Ethics: The End of Cosmetic Cuts
    Oct 15 2025
    On this episode of Animal Party, Deb Wolfe serves up equal parts laughs, heart, and hard truths. We kick off with the Wyoming “wolf suit” fiasco—a cautionary (and hilarious) PSA about why wildlife can’t be duped by costumes or club tricks. Then Deb unpacks the growing wave of legislation in Quebec, the U.S., and Europe restricting cosmetic pet surgeries (debarking, declawing, ear cropping, tail docking) and explains humane, effective alternatives. You’ll hear a feel-good rescue from Canada’s Bay of Fundy, where volunteers freed stranded white-sided dolphins from knee-deep mud, and a tender update on Teddy, Deb’s senior poodle, as she weighs pain control, mobility, and quality of life. We close with a heartfelt invitation to adopt or foster—because while no pet is replaceable, there’s always another soul ready to love you back.
