I was wondering if someone else would stick up for bmezine.
The majority of the members do have a problem with animal modification, alot of them are animal welfare activists.
However, I too disagree with animal modification, seems unnecessary and any piercing will eventually get ripped out. And tattoos are just unecessary anesthsia(sp??)

I've been a member since I was 16 (25 now). Shannon has written articles in past when this has come up.. as it has come up on dog forums long before this thread. I couldn't find the one I was looking for though. It talked to a few of the people who had modded their pets and had pictures in that gallery. Got their viewpoint on why they did what they did.. not promoting it.
I'm definitely not pro modding animals. I have no issue with BME documenting it though. Doesn't really change what people will and won't do.
