West Hollywood, Calif., is trying to ban cosmetic surgery on animals, including tail docking, de-fanging, ear cropping, and botox for noncurative reasons. (De-clawing was banned by a unanimous vote in 2003.) The California Veterinary Medical Association objects to the ban, saying that it will hamper veterinarians' ability to act in the best interests of their patients and clients.
