Well, if it had been real, it would’ve been truly shocking. Luckily, a few days after the extremely bizarre news surfaced and pretty much grossed anyone out, it was all announced as a hoax. What you see in the shocking pictures, is the odd work of Brazilian performance artist Rodrigo Braga. The artist asked a veterinary surgeon to sew the dog’s face pajrts on his own face.

I think there was some mention in the article that the surgery was a hoax.

Why not? Marriage has become fair game.
I'm reminded of a particularly ignorant coworker who made this claim to be a couple years back in Minnesota, when same-sex marriage was being legalized. Specifically, he said "What next!? People marrying their dogs!?", with much gesticulating.

I pointed out the absurdly obvious fact that expanding the rights of people was not going to lead to non-humans doing anything. As an example, I noted that his claim was as ridiculous as someone in 1920 claiming that if Amendment XIX was ratified (giving women the vote) that it would eventually lead to dogs voting.

His response:
"Oh, sure, that hasn't led to dogs voting... yet!"

You can't argue with anyone making such a stupid claim as that. All you can really do is point out the stupidity for the benefit of any onlookers.

PS - Humans are animals (yes, this is a biological fact, no matter how much it gets the undies of fundies in a bunch!)

It would be of no use when intimate with a human female so it would need to be discretionary or I would need to find female centaur - do they exist?
I couldn't find one but your comment reminded me of the unicorn guy LOL

I was out hiking last week and I suddenly had to pee like a racehorse. I actually had the thought, "Dang, I wish I were a poodle so I could just pee right here in public!" I mean, I REALLY had to pee!!! Who's in charge, anyway, if we humans have to wait until we can find a restroom but dogs can just squat or lift a leg and piddle right there when they need to?
I'd be just like Alex from the movie Madagascar. Walk & talk just like a human, but keep my lion characteristics. As long as I'm fed everyone around me will be fine.

Definitely one of my favorite film series. (yes I'm a big kid ) Hopefully they make their return to NYC in the finale.

Now, suddenly, people are going around saying things like: "I always knew I was a woman. I was just born into the wrong body."

Well, one day, I'm sure the technology to turn into an animal will exist. I can see it happening now: "I've always identified with my dogs. I know I should have been born a dog. I'm a dog trapped in a human body."

Strange, but isn't this where we're headed?
I don't know what you consider "not too long" but Google the name Christina Jorgenson IIRC. He/She was a world class Tennis player back in the 50s or 60s that decided to have sex reassignment surgery. I am not sure if that was the first or whether just the first I knew of.
