You are wanting to discuss something that I made clear from the beginning was not the issue. If you want to argue that choosing to have cosmetic surgery and having cosmetic surgery performed on your dog are not the same thing, then go right ahead and I will agree with you.
Maybe if I state it this way, I don't find the desire to improve one's own appearance with surgery to be any less irrational than the desire to improve the appearance of one's pet with surgery. They're both a little crazy to me. That is my opinion and nothing more.
