This dog didn't need a cone of shame but they wanted one. After this bucket of shame ended up on their head we're positive they started to question this life decision. Some dogs do things because their vet tells them it's something they need and other dogs rebel against the man, even if they are man's best friend. Either way, this dog is now the proud owner of a cone of shame and this one is probably a bit more difficult to remove than the vet approved option.
