Botox for your Dog

As if the dog Snuggie wasn't proof that we as a society have lost our freaking mind, you can now get your dog plastic surgery. In a scene straight out of the Ricki Lake, the picture to the left comes from AOL and is the before and after of a dog in Australia.

This dog is Roland and was a stray shar pei . According to the Sydney Daily Telegraph the dog's wrinkles caused his eyelashes to turn inwards. That is apparently a common problem with this breed and can cause blindness. So the RSPCS spent a grand to get this DOG-- a full face lift and double eye lift.

The chief vet told the paper the dog is more adoptable because potential owners aren't facing that major financial burden upon taking the pup home.

Look younger, find a job

The recession is not depressing for everyone. Plastic surgeons are capitalizing on wrinkles and helping older people find work.

In some cases, employers get hundreds of applications for one job. So they have a lot of choices. Older people are now competing with perky young people for the same jobs. So, to even the playing field, older workers are getting some work done to make them look and feel younger.

Can I get plastic surgery to be taller?

**Note... to my knowledge this man has not had any plastic surgery.
